Callington Mill, Stone windmill in Oatlands, Tasmania
The cylindrical sandstone structure stands 18 meters tall, featuring a white dome and four large blades that power the internal grinding stones.
The mill, constructed in 1837 by William Callington, operated until 1891 and represents one of the few remaining operational windmills in Australia.
The mill produces organic flour using traditional methods, maintaining the connection between historical agricultural practices and modern food production in Tasmania.
Located 84 kilometers north of Hobart on the Midland Highway, the mill offers guided tours every hour between 10 AM and 3 PM.
Four floors of working machinery demonstrate the complete grain-to-flour process, making it the only functional Lincolnshire-style windmill in Australia.

The windmills from Kinderdijk in the Netherlands to Cape Cod demonstrate technical innovation and cultural heritage. These structures served for grain milling, drainage, and industrial production. Each mill documents the local history and technical development of its region. The collection includes 18th century mills like the Sanssouci Mill in Potsdam and modern specimens like the Murphy Mill in San Francisco.
