The great water mill was built in Szczebrzeszyn at the beginning of the 20th century, at the behest of the Ordinate, Count Maurycy Zamoyski. The mill is three-storey, built of local white stone, with red brick inserts. It stands to this day on Klukowskiego Street, opposite the beetle monument.
The mill building was originally intended for a grain and flour warehouse and for the millers' residence. After World War I, the mill was purchased from the Ordinance by Jan Pereta and Eligiusz Drożdżyk - residents of Szczebrzeszyn.
The Szczebrzeszyn mill, powered by water, was the largest in the Lublin province in terms of grain milling in the interwar period and one of the largest in Poland. At that time, the mill produced many types of high-quality flour.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the water mill provided electricity at night to light the city, but at the end of the 1930s Szczebrzeszyn was connected to the power grid and the mill has been powered by electricity since then.
Over time, the mill and the lock were destroyed and in 1978 the mill stopped working, there were even plans to set up a hotel there. Over time, the old equipment was scrapped and the building fell into disrepair, but in 1983 the mill was bought by milling specialist Mieczysław Dubiel and new equipment and devices were installed here.
The restored mill resumed operation in 1985. The elevations have retained their original architecture, thanks to which the buildings constitute an original and characteristic monument of Szczebrzeszyn.
