    Former mill of Verchain-Maugré

    Hiking

    Many centuries ago, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements - which on the one hand were helpful and useful, but on the other hand could also be a threat as untamed forces of nature - for different purposes and thus did without human or animal muscle power can. Such mills are a good example of the human engineering skills of earlier generations: the heavy millstones with which, for example, grain was ground into grain or oil was pressed, could be powered with the help of the wind or - as here - water.
