Description
The main body of the building is rectangular in shape and is flanked by two towers, one round and the other square. The entrance is decorated with three consoles which were to support a balcony. In front of this facade, there is a courtyard surrounded to the west by a wing which includes stables. The outbuildings and the rooms are connected by a semicircular porch. There is a square of square shape, covered with letzes. The old stables have a vault in edges, with original slabs, and they still keep the central channel as well as the sandstone feeders. The ground floor of the castle is made up of several vaulted pieces. The old kitchens kept their 18th century appearance, including a bread oven, a sink, a sandstone water tank, a fireplace, and a vegetable garden. On the first floor, one of the pieces is decorated with stucco.
