The castle features a main building with one floor and an attic level, complemented by two pavilions and a slate-covered roof spanning the structure.
Originally built in 1080 for Countess Etiennette of Burgundy, the castle underwent complete reconstruction in 1756 under the direction of Marquis de Grammont.
