The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Antérieur à la réalisation du cadastre (1837) , ce moulin à vent de type tour occupe le sommet isolé d'une colline (cote 73) et dresse son mur circulaire (hauteur 7, 95 m) sur trois niveaux d'ouverture à linteaux de bois. Fait de schiste et de grès jointoyé de mortier, l'édifice est desservi par un escalier tournant, au premier étage, puis par une échelle meunière, au second. Privé aujourd'hui de ses ailes et de ses meules, il avait été équipé du système Berton à une date indéterminée.

History
Prior to the completion of the cadastre (1837), this tower-type windmill occupies the isolated summit of a hill (elevation 73) and raises its circular wall (height 7.95 m) over three levels of openings with wooden lintels. Made of slate and sandstone jointed with mortar, the building is served by a spiral staircase on the first floor, then by a miller's ladder on the second. Now deprived of its sails and its millstones, it had been fitted with the Berton system at an undetermined date.
