Editorial reading
The record dates the house to the seventeenth century, its transformation to 1790–1810 under Delarue, and its interiors to the Directoire and Empire styles. The 1995 listing names the château and its seventeenth-century wing of outbuildings, the nineteenth-century outbuildings, the moats, and the gardens with their enclosures. The gardens are protected with their walls, though not described.
