The Ministère de la Culture's notice

A l'origine, ce moulin servait de moulin à farine. Il a fonctionné jusqu'en 1900. La partie sud, à savoir le moulin, paraît être la plus ancienne. La partie centrale possède des cheminées caractéristiques du 15e siècle. La partie nord date peut-être de la fin du 19e siècle. La roue et le mécanisme sont en état de marche. Les éléments conservés se limitent à la roue et aux engrenages du rez-de-chaussée. La roue est en métal et possède des augets. Elle est établie à l'extérieur et ne possède plus d'abri.

Originally, this mill served as a flour mill. It operated until 1900. The south part, namely the mill, appears to be the oldest. The central part possesses chimneys characteristic of the 15th century. The north part perhaps dates from the late 19th century. The wheel and mechanism are in working order. The preserved elements are limited to the wheel and gearing of the ground floor. The wheel is in metal and has buckets. It is set on the exterior and no longer has a shelter.
