Gudhjem Windmill, Smock mill in Gudhjem, Denmark.
The white wooden structure stands 24 meters tall with rotating sails, making it the largest windmill in Denmark, situated near the Baltic Sea coast.
Constructed in 1893 by Matts Kullmann for his son Christian, the windmill operated continuously until 1962, serving local farmers with grain processing capabilities.
The mill represents traditional Danish agricultural engineering, forming part of Bornholm's collection of 20 remaining windmills from an original count of 125.
Visitors can access the lower two floors of the mill, which contain a shop and café, while the structure remains under ownership of Bornholms Brand insurance company.
The mill's machinery was manufactured by Frichs of Aarhus and included additional facilities such as a warehouse, bakery, and electrical generator in its compound.
