Built in the 17th century for Monsieur de Varengeville, an advisor to Louis XIV, the château is characterized by its remarkable architectural unity: the main building, outbuildings, and the walls of the lower courtyard and the main courtyard are constructed of flint and brick with a sandstone base.
The château is adorned with wrought-iron balconies and pediments bearing the coats of arms of Mademoiselle de Varengeville and Marshal de Villars, who stayed there between his military campaigns. It is surrounded by a carpet of greenery punctuated by yew and boxwood. A triple row of century-old beech trees frames the park.
Visitors can admire 17th- and 18th-century furniture and paintings in the reception rooms, mementos from the Imperial Court of Vienna, elegant original stucco decoration in the chapel, and the unchanged former kitchen. Lime hedges and long hornbeam hedges, pruned into arches, globes, and pillars, frame the green lawns punctuated with yew and boxwood, in keeping with the tradition of French formal gardens. Meanwhile, the flower garden, a collection of small, secret gardens, is a dazzling display of perennials and annuals. The kitchen garden, with its beds bordered by clipped boxwood, alternates vegetables and flowers in harmonious colors, a feast for the eyes. All this is complemented by fruit trees trained as espaliers, counter-espaliers, and goblet-shaped trees.
