Post mill in Drewnica, Historic post mill in Drewnica, Poland
The wooden post mill structure stands on a brick foundation, featuring a rectangular body covered with vertical boards and a distinctive shingle roof.
Built in 1718 by Dutch Mennonite settlers, this mill served as a grain processing facility in the Vistula Delta region for generations.
The Drewnica post mill exemplifies the agricultural heritage of the Żuławy region, reflecting the technological innovations brought by Dutch settlers to Poland.
Located at Wiślana 117A in Drewnica, the mill maintains its original mechanisms and several pieces of historical equipment for visitors to examine.
