Windmills

TIME : 2016/2/18 17:35:52

The easternmost town in Denmark, Svaneke is quite breezy and has a number of windmills. To the northwest of town you’ll find an old post mill (a type of mill that turns in its entirety to face the wind) and a Dutch mill , as well as an unusual three-sided water tower designed by architect Jørn Utzon (of Sydney’s Opera House fame). On the main road 3km south of Svaneke in the hamlet of Årsdale , there’s a working windmill where grains are ground and sold.
