    This ice cellar was built in 1875 by J. Matthieu, the castle owner.

    It is a typical ice cellar with an access tunnel, covered with earth and planted with trees.

    The ice cellar used to serve as a cool space for storing food.

    In the winter, blocks of ice were taken from the pond and stacked in the cellar. During the summer, they provided a cold temperature. With the advent of electric refrigerators, the ice cellar lost its importance and became empty.
