About the location

Moulin de la tour
Place du 8-Mai-1945 94200 Ivry-sur-Seine
  • Val-de-Marne
  • Île-de-France
This windmill is built of stones, some of which bear the dates of 1415 and 1680\. Its «cyclopean» base and the thickness of its walls suggest a medieval construction, modified in the seventeenth century. It ceased to operate at the beginning of the 19th century and was occupied by basketmakers, then served as a hay reserve and hydrocarbon depot before being restored in 1976\. Inside, one can discover a complete crushing mechanism of the grains and a magnificent frame. The mill has been listed as a Historical Monument since 1979.
