Artistic complex dating from the 14th century, consisting of a park, a castle and a Carmelite convent.

Designed in the 19th century by the Franco-Belgian landscape architect François Duvillers, it has nearly sixty-three different areas such as the avenue of orange trees, a labyrinth or a grotto dating from 1877. During the walk, you will find storks, a French rose garden, magnolias and an oak of more than two hundred years (before the park), but also an aviary of the 19th century, sheltering pheasants and doves.The Carmelite convent
