Molino de Perez, Watermill in Malvín, Montevideo, Uruguay.

The stone and brick building stands near Rambla O'Higgins with its large windows displaying the internal milling mechanism across two levels.

Built in 1840 by merchant Juan María Pérez, the watermill operated using the Malvin stream to grind wheat from surrounding agricultural lands.

The structure received national historical heritage status in 1975, marking its importance in Uruguay's industrial development and agricultural practices.

Located at coordinates -34.896222, -56.095314 in Parque Baroffio between Malvín and Punta Gorda neighborhoods, near Alejandro Gallinal street.

The 1950 reconstruction by Horacio Arredondo included specific design modifications to allow visitors to observe the machinery from outside the building.
