The country house was fortified and constructed around 1180 by Bernard IV, Count of Armagnac.
The name of this country house seems to be of Celtic origin "ju" = tree "Guen" = wine, which probably tree wine.
If the vines are now hardly present, the wine fair in August continues the tradition of wine.
