The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Le moulin à vent de Grez fut le dernier à fonctionner dans le département de l'Oise ; il se présente comme un moulin-tour, composé d'une tour en maçonnerie intégrant une charpente mobile pour orienter les ailes. Sa maçonnerie, en damier de grès et de silex avec des chaînages de briques, remonte à 1660, comme l'atteste un cartouche en pierre calcaire inséré au premier niveau.

History
The windmill of Grez was the last to function in the department of Oise; it presents itself as a tower mill, composed of a tower in masonry integrating a mobile roof structure to orient the sails. Its masonry, in a chequer of sandstone and flint with brick chainings, dates to 1660, as attested by a cartouche in limestone inserted at the first level.
