La Lande du Crac‘h windmill

Perros-Guirec

About

Crac‘h windmill, restored in 1986, bears testament to an era before the steam engine. Close up, you will be able to make out the engraving "1727" in the stone, likely indicating its date of construction. This mill is powered by the wind and is designed using an ingenious system. The upper, corbelled part keeps the sails away from the body of the windmill and a rotating system positions the sails according to the wind.
