We can tour its large courtyard, and the almost square plan that it presents, indicating by its size and the time in which it was erected, that it served as a residence rather than a defensive fort. Two interesting cubes are indications of the barrier and the moat that protected the entrance door to the enclosure, and of which there are no remains. Three towers, two circular, another square, and the homage, make up the rest of the enclosure.

It was endowed with artillery and garrison in the 16th century.
