2 Milczańska Street in Poznań, Smock mill in Poznań, Poland.

The octagonal wooden tower at 2 Milczańska Street has a movable cap that turns to capture wind energy for grinding grain into flour.

The construction of this mill in 1910 marked a period of industrial development in Poznań when wind power remained essential for agricultural production.

The mill stands as a testament to traditional Polish engineering methods and agricultural practices from the early twentieth century.

Located at coordinates 52.3951 latitude and 16.9626 longitude, the structure maintains its original external features under monument protection regulations.

The mill incorporates a sophisticated internal gearing system that transfers power from the wind-driven cap to the grinding mechanisms below.
