The structure possesses a rare northern French example of arched machicolations on buttresses, more characteristic of military architecture in the Languedoc. The castle passed to the family of Châtillon in the fifteenth century. In 1990 film producer Jean Chalopin, owner of the property from 1989 to 2006, began a project to restore the Château. The castle was once owned by Yellowstone Club founders Edra and Tim Blixseth. Following the Blixseth's 2009 divorce and bankruptcy, the castle was put up for sale by creditors for $57 million U.S. dollars. In 2010 the castle was bought by the current owner, a French holding company. The castle has its own moat, hunting grounds, 25 bedrooms, theatre, spa with 25 m heated indoor pool, garden, parc 1,000 acres (4.0 km2), and a helipad. Today the structure is available to rent for private events. (en)
