On the site of the present house, several buildings have been erected: a Gallo-Roman villa, a medieval castle, a citadel built in the late 16th century by the Duke of Epernon, and finally this classic Carthusian monastery built in 1723 by the Denis de Lansac family The Bourquais call the "Citadel" today. This estate then belongs to the family of Broglie and end of the 18th century Jérôme-Marie Champion of Cicé, Archbishop of Bordeaux. The main building has only one level, topped by a parapet that hides the roof. In 1940, the Germans settled there and lived there during the entire occupation. In 1944 they set fire to the building, of which only the outer walls of the 18th century are preserved. The castle was rebuilt almost identically in 1964. Various events take place in this prestigious location.
