Stéphane Leblanc

It has several main buildings built at different times. The cellar, the medieval room with a broken barrel vault, probably contemporary with the 12th century church, has an underground passage and two wells, food reserves. On this cellar was built a building currently flanked by two towers (15th and 16th century). Attached to this structure, a two-storey building (early 17th century) on which is grafted at an angle a building with an attic storey (late 17th, early 18th century). The machicolated portal adjoins an elegant mansard-roofed pavilion adorned with a row of balusters, followed by the castle, flanked by two round towers topped with sloped roofs. Opposite the pavilion, there is a tower and a small aedicule, in the form of a watchtower, which is accessed by a staircase; a frieze completes the whole.
The enclosure included an orangery backing onto the church, whose once famous orange trees were sold in 1893 to the city of Bordeaux, a 17th century square watchtower, a park, an orchard and a pond.
