The oldest mill in Olivet, it belonged to the monks of Micy Abbey in the 10th century. Named so because it was initially installed on a boat, it was first used for flour then in the 18th century, began to be used for treading woolen cloth, in particular "gasquests" which are Turkish caps whose Orléans hosiers were specialists.
