St-Janshuismolen

Bruges


In the 13th century, Bruges' great walls were dotted with molens (windmills) where cereals were ground into flour. Four still stand on the eastern rampart and two can be visited: this, the 18th-century St-Janshuismolen, standing in its original location is one, the nearby Koeleweimolen is another. The sails are occasionally set in motion, and each houses a tiny museum.
