Hiking Highlight
Recommended by 5 hikers
Angla Mill Hill is located on the Estonian island of Saaremaa and is one of its landmarks. There were once more than 800 mills on Saaremaa and in 1925 there were still nine mills on Angla Mill Hill. Angla's Mill Hill is the only one on Saaremaa that has retained more or less its original appearance.

Five of the original nine mills can be seen here. In addition to a so-called Dutch mill with only a movable head, the other four mills are a two-story rotating construction. In the middle there is a massive column around which the entire mill can be rotated into the wind. At the entrance to the small museum park there is also a restaurant where information material and souvenirs (e.g. made of Saaremaa dolomite) can be purchased.

Because there is a lot of wind here on this hill, all the farmers of the small village have built their windmills here.
Originally there were nine mills, but today there are still five.
Angla's Mill Hill is now an open-air museum.
