Among its most impressive features are the moats, seven towers integrated into the main structure, an old dovecote, three wells still in operation, and a 16th-century chapel with historic stained-glass windows.
In the years following its construction, the château was gradually expanded and enriched with new architectural elements that further enhanced its heritage value.
