The castle, one could also call it a large villa , is an example of the Belle Époque architectural style . The owner, the banker Paul Varin-Bernier (1847–1916), had the castle built as a sign of his social advancement and economic success.
The historicizing house is surrounded by a large park. The architect Jules Renard from Bar-le-Duc designed the plans.
The city's media library has been housed in the building since 1996 .
