The present château was built around 1845. The fabric of the main building and the grand staircase date from the time when Nicolas de L'Hospital owned the castle in the seventeenth century, but the house underwent major changes in the 1840s when it was rebuilt by Adelaide of Orleans. The front part of the house and the English-style landscape garden belong to this period.
Furniture from the château may be marked feu: LB surmounted by a crown or ARC.
