==Description==
The castle is attached to a park and surrounded by the Laigne river.

==History==
Robert de Ricey had a [[fortified house]] constructed in 1086. This [[keep]] was destroyed by the king. In 1424, [[Nicolas Rolin]] had a new castle built on the site which had been given to him by the [[Duke of Burgundy]]. This became a residence for the [[Ancient Diocese of Chalon-sur-Saône|Bishops of Chalons-sur-Saône]].

Marie d'Amboise, who was the tenant of the fiefdom, modified the castle in 1450, notably with two towers. One of the towers is named after [[House of Laval|Anne de Laval]]; she had a new tower, 12 metres in diameter, built, as well as a gallery, in 1506.

The [[Manorialism|manor]] became a [[Marquess|marquessate]] in 1659 for Louis Vignier.

The château is privately-owned and not open to the pubic. It was added to the list of ''[[Monument historique|monuments historiques]]'' in 1967, and classified in 1979 and 1985.<ref name=MinCult/>
