Description

A rectangular tower with jaws is present, but it is in ruins inside. Adjacent to this tower is a large 18th century building, followed by a smaller construction dating from the 15th century, with flamboyant windows. The park is located opposite the castle, and is bordered by a terrace, under which there are various spaces including a chapel. This chapel is rectangular in shape with a cradle vault and shelters a fresco representing the Annunciation, produced in 1706 and signed by Franciscus Jarnoux.
