Moulin de Craca, Historical windmill in Plouézec, France.

Moulin de Craca is a windmill in Plouézec, Côtes-d'Armor, built as a slightly tapered tower of schist, known locally as pierre de Craca. Its wooden cap is covered with chestnut shingles, and four lattice sails carry cloth panels. A door dated 1844 has a lintel topped by a relieving arch, and a small square window sits above it.

Built in 1844, the Moulin de Craca was abandoned in 1928 and stood in ruins by 1976. The commune of Plouézec bought it in 1993 and had it restored to its original form by Jean Peillet, a millwright. It is listed in the general inventory of cultural heritage.

The mill hosts an annual music festival in August where visitors can hear Breton and Irish songs performed with local food shared among guests. This celebration keeps alive the musical traditions of the region and brings together people interested in Celtic culture.

The mill stands on the coastal path GR 34, north of Plouézec, on a cliff above Port Lazo. Visitors reach it on foot along the trail; the ground around the tower is dry grass. Stones of the old miller's path lie around the building, where the miller once leaned to turn the roof into the wind.

Sailors once used the mill as a landmark when navigating into the Bay of Paimpol. Its location on high ground near the shore made it a useful reference point for ships traveling the coast.
