Ancienne école militaire, le château en a gardé son église royale. Elle a été notamment l'école de Général Desaix qui a suivi Napoléon Bonaparte dans les guerres révolutionnaires jusqu'en Egypte. Le château est à visiter car son histoire fait partie intégrante de la grande histoire.
A beautiful castle! The lord of the manor will not hesitate to take time you can tell the castle's history! The park is worth a visit, it is magnificent!
