The Moulin de Maintenay is a beautiful 12th century water mill located on the banks of the Authie1. It is located in a magical place, full of charm, nestled in a valley of the Seven Valleys, just on the border between Picardy and Nord – Pas de Calais. The mill was given to the Cistercian monks of Valloires Abbey in 1197 and the monks worked there until the 18th century. After the Second World War, the flour mill ceased its activity and was transformed into a sawmill. This activity stopped in the 1970s. Today, the Moulin de Maintenay is a tourist place where you can discover the history of the mill on a self-guided or guided tour. It also has a tea room where you can enjoy homemade pancakes and pancakes on the banks of the Authie. Additionally, there is a bakery where you can buy sourdough breads, brioches, tarts, etc.
