The complex, whose irregular rampart conforms to the rocky peak, consists of the approximately 35-meter-high keep made of humped ashlars and the palace opposite – both belonging to the Romanesque upper castle – a lower castle, and the moat, built in the 15th century, with a small round tower at the north corner. The road now runs through the half-ditch.
