The shape it held in its prime.
Symmetrical Baroque schloss with a three‑storey central corps de logis flanked by lower U‑shaped wings, all rendered in ochre‑yellow with sandstone quoins and window surrounds. Slate mansard roofs are pierced by rows of dormer windows and topped by chimneys and small cupolas. A triangular central pediment with a sculpted relief crowns the main façade above three vertical bands of tall sash windows; a paved forecourt is framed by stone gate piers, low balustrades and paired octagonal pavilions.
