A place conducive to rest and meditation. Do not hesitate to greet the lord of the place, a majestic weeping willow.

Very pleasant and shaded walk

This feudal castle, built in the 15th and 16th centuries, has passed from family to family over the centuries. It is said that he had such an impressive orangery that it was sold in 1893 to the city of Bordeaux.

Magnificent crossing point with a nice climb to finish arriving at this place.

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.

quiet place good for a break
