Moulin de Verzenay, Historic windmill in Verzenay, France
The Moulin de Verzenay stands prominently on Mont-Bœuf hill, featuring a conical structure with wooden sails that overlooks the Champagne vineyards.
Built in 1818 by the Tinot-Vincent family, the windmill operated until 1903 and served as a military observation post during both World Wars.
The windmill represents the connection between traditional grain milling practices and the development of the Champagne wine region in northern France.
The structure belongs to G.H. Mumm champagne house and provides visitors with panoramic views of the surrounding vineyards throughout the year.
This windmill contained two separate milling systems, allowing it to process different types of grain simultaneously through its dual building structure.
