Tips from locals
The placement of the windmill on an island facilitated the doubling of the number of water millwheels – 12 in the beginning and 18 after the reconstruction. These wheels operated till the 19th Century, and after the modernisation of the system of the mill, it operated till the end of the Second World War and produced up to 200 tonnes of flour a day.
