The castle was predated by a Celtic and later Roman fortification. The medieval castle was first mentioned in the 11th century. It played a minor role in the War of Hundred Years and according to local legend, Joan of Arc stayed at the castle during that time.

It was largely abandoned in the 17th century and fell into ruins. It was restored in the late 19th century. Today it serves as a hotel. The picture is from an ad for the hotel.

Here is some drone footage which shows some more of it.
