It has since been bought by the Department and commune with a prehistoric museum in its Renaissance gallery and architectural grotto of considerable interest. The museum highlights some of the important flint/stone artefacts and fossils found in the region.

The château is open to visitors and has some impressive gardens.

The quality of its architecture and gardens make the chateau an interesting place to visit. The keep, built at the end of XIIth century was later enhanced by a strong defensive enclosure with towers.

The chateau was restored around 1560 by Honorat de Savoie, a loyal lord to the Kings of France. The arcaded gallery built during the wars of religion around the main courtyard shows the care devoted to this restoration. There is a panoramic view from the top of the Vironne tower
