This windmill was built in 1824 and restored to its original condition in 1992. This three-storey Angevin-style tower mill, the only one still in operation in Mayenne, has another special feature: tours are given by the miller's great-grandson. You can also watch buckwheat flour being made.

Open Sundays and public holidays from 2pm to 6pm. By appointment on other days of the week. Groups, all year round by appointment.
