Description
The castle consists of an almost square courtyard, surrounded by moat on three sides. A bridge leads to a fortified door, which is protected by jaws and a turret added in the 15th century. By entering the courtyard, on the left, you can see the vestiges of buildings dating from the 13th century, including a ground floor used as a large dining room, with a fireplace bearing traces of paint. We access the first floor by a staircase located in a tower. To the right of the entrance, more imposing buildings of the 15th century are linked to the buildings of the 13th century by a wooden gallery, with modifications made in the 16th century.
