Samppalinna Windmill, Historical windmill in III District, Turku, Finland.
The windmill rises from its foundation as a tall wooden structure with rotating blades atop a cylindrical base near the city center.
The construction of Samppalinna Windmill in 1860 marked the integration of industrial development into the agricultural landscape of Turku.
The windmill stands next to the Wäino Aaltonen Museum, forming a connection between industrial heritage and contemporary Finnish art.
Visitors can observe the windmill structure from multiple angles while exploring the surrounding park areas throughout the year.
The preservation of this 19th-century windmill within an urban setting demonstrates the evolution of Turku from agricultural to modern times.
