History
Windmill of tower type, with one entrance, supposed to date from 1820. It houses the mechanisms in place, notably the lantern gear, bearing the inscription "made by Garros the year 1829". The suspended staircase, without handrail, semi-circular and made of oak planks, leads to the floor where the millstones are. The mill, in brick and render, with a temporary covering, is equipped with its directional weathervane. It depends on a domain whose château is registered.
