In 1767, the estate was acquired by the Baron de Saint-Pierre, who renamed it after himself. After his death, the property was split, and the two halves were cultivated separately before being reunited in 1922 by Pierre and Charles Van den Bussche. Further consolidation occurred in 1981 when Henri Martin purchased the property, bringing the entire domain under his ownership.
