Before reaching, it there is a stone bridge which spans the moat of running water.

A lodge of stone, faced with brick, with large windows, rises at each corner of this space.
The chateau, surrounded by cleverly arranged trees, stands in the centre, on a solid foundation of red granite from the Jura.

A splendid double staircase leads to the ground floor as high as an 'entresol'.

A spacious hall, rising to the roof of the building, lighted by a window filled with old stained glass, first offers itself to the visitor.

A large organ, by Cavallie-Col, rears its long brilliant pipes at one end of the hall to a level with the gallery of sculptured wood running round and forming a balcony on the first floor.
