[1] The current castle was built on the ruins of an old feudal castle which consisted of two buildings divided by a courtyard: one of them served as a dungeon while the other was used as housing for the local lord.

Previously, he had the castle rebuilt, which already belonged to his family, on the model of that of Vullierens.

His daughter, Judith-Louise, married Gabriel-Henri de Mestral, then Lord of Pampigny.

The castle is classified as cultural property of national importance.

[3] It is surrounded by a 4.6-hectare (11-acre) wine estate where the Grand Cru Saint-Saphorin-sur-Morges AOC La Côte is produced.
