Description

A small castle dating from the 17th century was built on the site of an old structure, and it is accompanied by a dovecote. The strong house has a rectangular shape and is made of granite rubble, with a square tower on the side. Around 1850, a small extension was added to serve as accommodation for the manager, and the interiors were redecorated during this period. The dovecote, which is low and stocky, represents a well -preserved example of this common type in limagnes, but which is rare in the chestnut and Aurillac basin region. On the ground floor, under the fenil surmounted by the dovecote, there is a small chapel whose painted decoration is typical of the beginning of the 17th century.
