Located on a small height which offers a very extensive view of the valley, the castle is made up of two buildings at right angles with several turrets. With the exception of a few buttresses, the traces of fortifications still visible at the beginning of the 17th century have now disappeared.

Inside the dolmen is a table pierced with about forty small holes. It is believed that these holes were made by young shepherds with nails out of idleness while tending the sheep.
