The Castle+
The square tower with machicolations on corbels is the only remnant of the castle built in the 13th century. In the 15th century, two new buildings at right angles were added to the tower; the first contains several mullioned windows on its facade. A bretèche on corbels overhangs the entrance door (15th century) of the castle. This door is surmounted by a coat of arms. The castle is not open to visitors.
