The building has vaults in ivy and third points dating from the 16th century, erected on the foundations of the novel walls. It also houses a novel bedside as well as vestiges of a door from the same time. The bell tower appears as an imposing tower, with benches installed in the recess of the windows at each level. This configuration could have been designed to house a small garrison in an emergency.
