Isolated on a plateau to the east of the village, an important set of limestone rubble stones which developed from a medieval keep, of which the current farmhouse belongs mainly to the 16th century and the castle facing south, to the 19th century . Cense belonging at the end of the 16th century to Noël de Tabolet, lord of Graux, burgomaster of Dinant, whose "house, tower, barn and stables" are mentioned. Property of the Villenfagnes in the 18th century and by marriage, of the Bonhomme family from 1843. Today surrounded by the constructions of the castle keep of the late Middle Ages forming a rectangular box of three levels, of which the face towards the farm only preserves primitive openings: on the left, small window with straight lintel and slit of light illuminating the intra-wall stone staircase. At the top on the right, a brick bretèche on stone brackets, possibly added in the 16th century. Hipped building studded with weather vanes. Against the keep to the west, a 19th century castle comprising three levels, the main facade of which, towards the park, is an addition from the beginning of the 20th century. Rectangular openings with projecting sills.
