The mill is equipped with a Poncelet-type paddle wheel, which drives a turbine and produces electricity. The site also includes a bread oven, an exhibition room and a picnic area. The mill is part of the heritage of Avesnois and the Vallée des Deux-Helpes, and bears witness to the history and culture of this region.

The Helpe Majeure crosses in Flaumont-Waudrechies an old flour mill dependent on the Hautmont Abbey, whose existence is attested since the 15th century and which was transformed into a marble sawmill in 1883 (in operation until 1990). The current visible buildings date from the 18th century and were probably built when the mill was sold by the abbey in 1745. Before 1905, the mill was purchased by the Maybon family who, instead of the mill, installed armored saws to cut the marble, using the river to provide the necessary energy. After the First World War the mill belonged to the Cordier family.

Municipality in the Vallée de la Helpe Mineur and the Parc naturel régional de l'Avesnois. The town square, the church, the town hall and the war memorial are all on a handkerchief. The village also has about forty chapels made of blue stone. These demarcate the Avesnois and Thiéerache and are spread along roads and paths, in forests or in wall niches. They were built to ask a favor, to thank heaven for something or to confirm a social position. They have existed since 1550. The chapel often consists of a narrow shaft surmounted by a beautifully fenced niche and a larger crown piece. There used to be polychrome wooden statues in the niches.

Using the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention that dates back to pre-Christian times. Thanks to such a construction, human or animal muscle power could simply be replaced by a natural or artificially created watercourse, for example to grind grain grains into grain. There are essentially two different types of drive for water mills: either the water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or the watercourse is guided above the wheel and falls on the blades, with this design the natural gravity gives a higher efficiency.
