During the 100 Years' War, it was fortified and occupied by men-at-arms in 1448 and 1449 to repel English assaults. Today, the battlements built for its defense are still visible. Listed as a Monument Historique in 1924, it contains listed furniture: An altar painting: "Remise du rosaire à Saint Dominique et un évêque" (Delivery of the rosary to Saint Dominic and a bishop) set in an imposing high altar: two tiers, a tabernacle with wings, and an architectural altarpiece.

This ancient feudal motte was relatively easy to defend, as it was surrounded by La Petite Creuse and a deep, steep valley. The château was built in the 12th century and occupied by Du Guesclin during the Hundred Years War. It suffered from the various conflicts and had to be rebuilt in the 14th century. Once an imposing structure, all that remains today is the fortified eastern gateway, the remains of the guard tower to the south, the keep and the open guardhouse at the gorge.

The church dates back to the 12th century, and its walls include a number of re-employments of earlier buildings. It is described in Louis Lacrocq?s "Les églises de France". The church was never completed: the nave is missing, as is the south transept (destroyed in the 19th century). If construction had been completed, this church would undoubtedly be one of the most imposing in the area. Dedicated to Saint Valerie, the church was listed as a Monument Historique in 1912. It contains the following listed furnishings: - A 12th-century shrine (currently on display at the Musée de Guéret) - 4 statues: two 18th-century apostles, the 18th-century Virgin Mary and 19th-century St. Philomena.

Ceramic finials made by the potter RENTY or his colleagues in the neighboring commune of MORTROUX between 1830 and 1880. The village of LINARD boasts four such finials: two on this house in the main street and two more at the presbytery (opposite the church, no. 26). The simple or figurative finial is first and foremost a utilitarian piece to protect the spike of the frame on three- or four-sloped roofs, but it is also an ornamental piece.
