The seat of a landed seigneury since the 14th century, this ancient limestone castle stands on a hillock near the centre.
This quadrilateral, once surrounded by moats, has undergone several transformations and restorations over the centuries. Only the north side, flanked by two circular towers, is original. A porch-domit commands the entrance. The first floor, rebuilt in brick in the 18th century, still displays the clogged slides of the old drawbridge.
