About the location

Quai de la navigation

Quai de la navigation, 24500 Eymet

Dordogne
Nouvelle-Aquitaine

The water mill of Eymet was built in the thirteenth century when the seigneurial bastide was founded and benefits from the port on the last navigable part of the Dropt which transports agricultural production to the cities of Dordogne. At the beginning of the 20th century, it was transformed into a flour mill and supplied all the bakeries of the Bergerac region. Its activity ceased in 1989 when the last miller retired. It has been under renovation since 2013 to restore its original beauty and craft vocation.
