Gros-Fays Castle-Farm

Built at the end of the 17th century, the Gros-Fays farmhouse is an unarmed castle. The relatively modest size of this seigniorial farmhouse and the few details on the main façade of the dwelling, which diminish as one moves away from the entrance, indicate that it was not the seignior who resided there, but rather the farmers who cultivated the rented land.

The dwelling, flanked by two square towers at the rear, and the 18th century outbuildings (barn and stables) are arranged opposite each other. They defined an open inner courtyard, now occupied by the street.
