Windmills from France left and Mallorca.
During my annual travels in German, I have visited many wonderful places, and some special places in particular remain indelibly imprinted upon my mind. The Frauenkirche in Dresden, the River Neckar in Heidelburg, Charlottenburg in Berlin, the Leipzig Churches where JS Bach worked and Köln Cathedral. I can now add to my list a collection of delightful windmills from around the world, and best of all, a Russian wooden church. The day for our visit was warm, but the museum site was tree covered, and it was possible to sit in shady corners, drink water, eat lunch, and in the lovely cafe, drink a large German beer!
A Portugese mill left, and one from Greece.
The following link will give you a detailed history of the site, and information about its founder, who converted his interest in making model windmills into the present day museum, with real, life size mills collected from around the world.
