Molino de Martos, Medieval watermill in Córdoba, Spain.

The Molino de Martos sits along the Guadalquivir River, featuring eight grinding stones and a sophisticated hydraulic system for grain processing.

Between 1237 and 1550, the structure operated as two separate medieval water wheels before being converted into a single building with an improved hydraulic system.

The Water Museum within Molino de Martos displays the traditional methods of using water resources for producing cereal flour, textiles, and leather goods.

The mill underwent extensive renovation works from 2001 to 2004, with a total investment of 1.3 million euros before opening to visitors in 2006.

The mill's underground water flow system, known as regolfo, represents a technological advancement from the 16th century that increased milling efficiency.
