This castle was built during the XI Century and dominated under a feudal system the village. Inspite of the different rebellions, local population could not burst feudal bonds until XVIII Century.

The castle suffered severe damages after a Genoese attack and also during the war against Napoleon's Grand Armee (also known as the Frenchman's War); diverse storms during the past centuries finished this destructive job.

The main tower resisted since mid past century, when a heavy storm had flattened the remains. Recently reconstructed, this tower is the only evidence of its past glory.
