Imposante butte de terre en contrebas du château de la commune. Il s'agit probablement d'un tertre ou tumulus funéraire ayant subi l’arasement du temps.
Une légende non vérifiée fait état d'un souterrain reliant cette butte à l'enceinte féodale du château.
Accessible en marchant dans la pâture privée et en évitant les génisses joueuses!
