Part of the Mortagne valley and the castle grounds are a natural site since 1999 and, since 2012, the castle was included in classified assets.The family of Lorraine there built a fortress that was later sold to Wise, the Tournielle, the Châtelet, the Lambertye who were of the Lorraine chivalry. The city was razed by the Duke of Burgundy Charles the Bold, but also by Louis XIII who razed ramparts, fortified gates and the castle. The present castle was built before 1750 by Germain Boffrand, it was partially destroyed during the bombardment of 24 August 1914 and no longer has a single level after restoration by Albert Laprade in 1920. The outstanding features and buildings of the Park have remained intact since the seventeenth century.
