The Prince of Condé and his troops seized it during the troubles of Louis XIII's minority.

Adrienne de Noailles passed it on to her husband, General de La Fayette, who lived there from 1802 until his death in 1834.

In 1935, the castle was bought by René de Chambrun Pineton from his cousin Louis de Lasteyrie, a descendant of Lafayette.

It is now the property of the Josée-et-René-de-Chambrun Foundation.
