Originally it consisted of a square keep on a motte, as well as a forecourt from around 1100.[1] Especially in the basement there are still old parts such as a crypt covered with a barrel vault.
The castle is still partly surrounded by a moat. A bridge with four round arches from the 17th and 18th centuries provides access. In the castle hang mourning boards from the 19th century, which used to hang in the church, as well as the mourning board of Pierre de la Villette from 1716.
