    The windmill known as the Moulin d'Achille in Moringhem, located near Saint-Omer in Hauts-de-France, rises to a height of 104 meters in an enclosure surrounded by a hawthorn hedge.

    The mill has an 11-meter-high rotating cap, built of white stone. Three large wheels, the slewing mechanism with a double set of cast iron rollers on rails, form two raceways, one vertical and one horizontal. It is the only restored stone mill from this period in the region.

    Built after the abolition of privileges in 1799, it is therefore designated a revolutionary mill. It operated until 1950.
