Description
Moulin de Moidrey is located on the top of a hill, only 5km from Le Mont-Saint Michel. Climb for one of the best views of Mont Saint Michel in the area.
Discover the Moulin de Moidrey, a stunning Norman windmill. Recognizable thanks to its white wings and its particular location at the top of a sand dune. This windmill is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
We were lucky to have a rrived just as the setting sun was highlighting the blades of the windmill.
Opened in 1806, the Moulin de Moidrey was closed and abandoned at the beginning of the 20th century. Almost 100 years later, in 2003, this old mill was finally restored.
Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007.
This is one of the rare mills in the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, which is still in use and producing flour according to the traditional methods. Mickaël Letranchant, a miller, is making flour from buckwheat, wheat, and rye, that he sells in the windmill shop. This miller also ensures interesting group visits to the Moulin de Moidrey.
Second place win contest "WINDMILLS ON THE FARM."
