The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Moulin reconstruit en 1699-1700, mais dont l'existence était attestée dès le 14e siècle, En Agasse, ou de Nagasse, faisait partie des biens temporels des archevêques de Toulouse. Il constituait un bien noble dont le détenteur devait rendre hommage au seigneur évêque. Son possesseur en 1574, un certain Verdiguier, était marchand pastelier à Toulouse. A partir du 16e siècle, le moulin fut occupé par un suite ininterrompue de meuniers. Il fut reconstruit en 1699-1700 comme moulin à farine. En 1821, il disposait d'un pressoir à huile en complément. En 1878, il avait deux paires de meules actionnées par des rouets à trompe, sous une chute de 3 m 75, qui donnait une force utile de 3 cv. Ayant cessé de moudre peu avant la Première Guerre mondiale, le moulin servit d'exploitation agricole. Il est entièrement en brique, sur un plan carré, et ne dispose que d'une entrée d'eau. Il a été réhabilité après la mesure de protection.

Mill rebuilt in 1699-1700, but whose existence was attested from the 14th century, En Agasse, or de Nagasse, was part of the temporal goods of the archbishops of Toulouse. It constituted a noble property the holder of which had to do homage to the lord bishop. Its owner in 1574, a certain Verdiguier, was a pastry merchant in Toulouse. From the 16th century onwards, the mill was occupied by an uninterrupted succession of millers. It was rebuilt in 1699-1700 as a flour mill. In 1821, it had an oil press as a supplement. In 1878, it had two pairs of millstones driven by trompe wheels, under a drop of 3 m 75, which gave a useful force of 3 hp. Having ceased to grind shortly before the First World War, the mill served as an agricultural holding. It is entirely of brick, on a square plan, and has only one water inlet. It has been rehabilitated after the protection measure.
