About twenty windmills once stood on the summit of the Kasselberg. The last mill caught fire on October 30, 1911, a fire visible from far and wide. In 1947, the Ruytoor mill in Arneke was purchased by the local Syndicat d'Initiative and opened to the public on July 14, 1949. The mill has two distinct functions: it serves as a corn mill, producing organic flour. An electrical unit serves as an oil mill, producing both rapeseed oil and linseed oil. Near the mill is an orientation table and a statue of Maréchal Foch.

The Cassel mill is located at the top of Mount Cassel, in a place called the castle terrace. It is an authentic stopover during your stay in Nord-Pas de Calais. There were once about twenty mills (wooden on pivots) on Mont Cassel, but they all gradually disappeared... In 1949, Cassel bought an old mill that had fallen into ruins in a neighbouring municipality, restored it and placed it in the public garden of Mont. It is called Kasteel Meulen.

The Porte d'Aire in Cassel is one of the historic city gates that is part of the old defensive wall of the city. This gate is known for its Gothic architecture and is an important historical monument. The Porte d'Aire is located on the southern side of the city and is one of the four gates that are still preserved from the medieval city walls. The gate has a characteristic serrated edge and is decorated with a carved coat of arms and a red inscription.

A mill already stood on the terrace of the Cassel castle in the 16th century, but the original burned down in 1911. This one is a restored mill purchased in 1949.
