Vodní mlýn

Vodní mlýn is a working watermill in Ředice with original wooden and stone machinery still in place. The water wheel turns from the flowing stream to power the grinding stones that crush grain into flour.

The mill was built to harness the water flow of a stream and served as a vital facility for the village for generations. It has operated on the same basic principles for centuries and continues to function today.

The watermill shows how grain milling was woven into the fabric of rural life for centuries. Local people relied on this place to process their harvests into usable flour and meal.

The mill is best visited in drier conditions since the pathways around the machinery are tight and can be slippery. Comfortable shoes are helpful for navigating the different levels of the building.

Some of the mill parts date from much earlier periods and were added or repaired over the years as needs changed. These layers of change reveal how the place adapted when new techniques or demands arose.
