Scholzeho větrný mlýn, Dutch windmill in Václavice, Czech Republic
The Scholze Windmill stands 10 meters in diameter on the route between Václavice and Uhelná, near the cities of Chrastava and Hrádek nad Nisou.
Carpenter and miller Josef Scholze constructed this windmill between 1842 and 1843 in response to an extremely dry year that affected local grain processing.
The structure represents traditional Czech agricultural engineering and received recognition as a cultural monument for its architectural and historical importance.
The renovated building now functions as accommodation with five beds, two bathrooms, parking for ten vehicles, and modern amenities including satellite television.
The mill maintained an annual processing capacity of 14,000 to 16,000 measures of grain until operations ceased in 1875, when the wind wheel was dismantled.
