 The château stood on a rectangular platform outlined in the French manner with a dry moat.The "cour d'honneur" was defined by terraces.The central block extends symmetrically into short wings, composed of several sections, each with its own roofline, with raked roofs and tall chimney stacks, in several ranges, with a broken façade reminiscent of the planning in work of Pierre Lescot and Philibert Delorme in the preceding century.
