The origins of this property date back to the time of the presence of an old abbey founded in the 12th century in place of the current manor, which would explain the existence of an old chapel in this architectural ensemble.
Occupied in turn by the French then the English during the Hundred Years' Wars, the latter left the Abbey in the 14th century, leaving the Abbey in ruins.
In the 15th century, the estate then became a fortress with four square and crenellated towers, one of which still remains to this day. It was surrounded by vast moats communicating with the pond and the nearby river. A drawbridge served it. There are still remains of this drawbridge today. The property owes its current form to the restoration work launched in the sixties by Mr. Guy DESJONQUERES.
