Many centuries ago, our ancestors discovered the possibility of harnessing the power of the elements—which, on the one hand, were helpful and useful, but on the other hand, as untamed forces of nature, could also be a threat—for various purposes, thus eliminating the need for human or animal muscle power. Mills such as these are a good example of the human engineering skills of earlier generations: The heavy millstones used to grind grain or press oil, for example, could be powered by wind or—as in this case—water.

The Moulin des Invalides is a watermill on the Laquette, located in the city of Aire-sur-la-Lys, part of the French department of Pas-de-Calais. The mill functioned as a flour mill. The mill was built in 1682 for Count De Robelin, who was an engineer for the French king. The builders were soldiers who were no longer fit for military service due to their injuries. In 1790 it was reported that the mill had two paddle wheels, but the current was too weak to turn both wheels. In 1840 the mill was partly rebuilt and enlarged. A winch was also installed to hoist the bags of grain. Mechanization followed in the course of the 19th century and the current building was erected in 1878. Electric propulsion arrived in the 20th century. In 1979 the company was closed down. In 1996 a new water wheel was installed, which had the same diameter of 5.2 meters as in 1790.
