  1. History of the castle
  2. Photo Gallery

Old medieval fortress, renovated between 1450 and 1470 per Jean de Derval remain of significant vestiges. It counted 6 turns, a châtelet of entry with a bridge levis and the home seigneurial. The oldest part is consisted the chorus of the vault castrale of Romance style (XIIIe). Four turns are still drawn up: the keep (XIIIe - XVe) century in the beginning independent of the castle, high of 38 meters; the tower of the Clock (XIVe-XVe) was used as belfry during Ancien Régime; the turns of Guet and the Cardinal (XVe) were undoubtedly built by Jean de Derval and preserved their covered way on machicolation.
