About

Listed as a Historic Monument.

Listed in 1947.

A Renaissance-era castle whose sole surviving tower, projecting from the façade, is a hexagonal keep housing a stone staircase, onto which the living quarters on the left-hand side open.

Three windows with horizontal mullions provide light for the staircase.

The rooms accessed by this staircase feature exposed ribbed beam ceilings, with beam-end motifs. It is the only regional example of a high-mountain castle.
