A 12th century castle, fortified in 1386. The present building dates from the late 15th or early 16th century. The communal buildings are accompanied by a dovecote with a circular floor plan, decorated with the arms of the Vignerot family. The church is home to the marble recumbents of René de Vignerot and his wife Françoise du Plessis de Richelieu, sister of the Cardinal. Executed around 1625 and attributed to Michel II Bourdin. The upper parts of the chapel are defensive.
