In this medieval castle (14th century) with a tower and an interior courtyard, lived in the 18th century, Roland Michel Barrin, Marquis de la Galissonnière.

Lieutenant general of the Naval Armies, he distinguished himself in particular at Fort Mahon in 1756, victorious against the English. Passionate about natural history and botany, he brought back from his distant travels and especially from Canada, of which he was governor in 1747, a large number of trees or flowers little known at the time: magnolia, begonia, tulip tree, sassafras , pines and oaks...

Some species still survive on the property.

During the Revolution the castle was partly demolished. It was also on this property that the first Muscadet vines were planted in 1730.
