Very nice windmill, especially in good weather!

Around the 10th century, Mormoulins Castle stood in the middle of the marshes. Access from Chaudon was via a sandstone causeway, the foundations of which still exist. The marshes filled in over the centuries, becoming the meadows bordering the current picturesque Mormoulins road. Legend has it that one of its owners was killed in a duel the day after his wedding, and a son was born nine months later. Another legend claims that a captain of the guards charged with defending the castle was killed along with a hundred men the day before his wedding. In 1774, the Receiver General of Finance of Picardy, brother-in-law of the Pompadour family, purchased it. It was he who had the canals dug, which are still visible today. In 1781, the owner was Mr. Fergeol, from Villers, whose widow sold the castle ruins in 1817 to Mr. du Temple de Chevrigny. Source: mormoulins.fr
