Description
In medieval times, the castle site was intended for an agricultural exploitation belonging to the Count of Toulouse. The castle that we know today was built in 1588. During the Revolution, the whole was sold as the good of the church. The building has an L form and is made of bricks. On the east side, the facade is embellished by a turret and decorations in staff lace at the second floor of the windows oriented to the east. The portal is decorated with wrought iron, bearing the initials GS of Baron Sabatié-Garat, who was the owner in the 19th century. Not far from the castle, there is a dovecote dating from the same period.
