For a long time, our ancestors have observed nature and learned to harness the often unbridled power of the elements, including flowing water. What makes this place special is the unusual technology used: it was not a "normal" water mill that was built, but a very unusual construction in which the wheels were hung in the arches.

Emblem of Vernon, this strange mill on the right bank of the Seine is distinguished by its hanging wheel suspended above the river.

The Vieux Moulin is a former water mill, which has become emblematic of the town of Vernon in Eure, on the edge of the right bank of the Seine.

After restoration work, this iconic Vernon monument has regained a look more in keeping with the beauty of the site. It can be visited during Heritage Days.

I went there and it's true that it's original

The Old Mill was built on the remains of a medieval arched bridge. The bridge dates back to the 12th century, but the mill was added in the 16th century. It is the last remaining remnant of the ancient mills built on bridges in the region. This one served as a subject for the famous Impressionist painter Claude Monet.
