Mlýn U Veselých, Historical watermill in Choteč, Czech Republic.

Mlýn U Veselých is a watermill in Choteč that holds fully preserved grinding machinery from the first half of the 20th century. The grain processing equipment still works, and a renovated small hydroelectric plant generates power for the building.

The mill has been run by the Veselý family since 1776, maintaining an unbroken tradition of grain processing across several generations. The different machines and equipment show how technology developed over time.

The mill's name comes from the Veselý family, who bought it in 1776 and still own it. A bakery built beside the mill in 1931 supplied bread to nearby shops until it was demolished in 1975. Since the 1990s the family has resumed milling special flours and gives guided tours of the working machinery.

The mill shop is open on certain days of the week, so visitors should check beforehand when exactly they can visit. Flour is sold on site, with advance orders needed for larger quantities.

In 1936 the mill hosted a Sokol slet, a regional gymnastics gathering attended by neighbouring villages. The upper-water wheel was replaced in 1942 by a Francis turbine, which survives on site, and a dynamo installed in 1943 lit the mill. The bakery added in 1931 was demolished in autumn 1975 as unsafe.
