The first fortress was built in 1292 by Eudes de Fouvent, to protect the ford over the river Morthe. The wars that ravaged the Franche Comté region destroyed it many times, but it was always rebuilt and always inhabited. Remodelled between the 17th and 19th centuries, the work was carried out by Baron de Klingin and the de Menthon family, owners since 1832. This family, whose Savoyard origins date back to the 10th century, has always been associated with the history of Franche Comté.
