At the heart of a 12 ha estate is the Mairie-Château dating from 1684 and acquired by the municipality in 1998. The surrounding park is laid out according to an 18th century plan with star-shaped alleys (some are still visible). Among the hundred-year-old cedars, the oldest was planted in 1779.

Remains of the famous Louis XIV Canal are present in the Park. On the visible portion of the Canal, about 250m, a cooler, ancestor of cold rooms, bears witness to the vestiges of the past.

A space where nature and history surround you.

Very pretty village with beautiful residences, do not miss the old building of the tracks and telegraph and its castle.
