The St Maxent mill is a wooden pivot windmill dating from 1630. It is located in the town of Saint-Maxent, in the Somme department, along the Abbeville-Rouen road. You will be able to admire the intact mechanism of the windmill, a rare example of this type in Picardy, and discover the process of making bread from cereals. You can visit the mill with a guided tour or participate in one of the educational workshops organized by the association “Les Amis du moulin à vent de Saint Maxent”. The windmill is open all year round, but you must contact them in advance to make a reservation. Enjoy the panoramic views and fascinating history of this remarkable windmill!

n the Middle Ages there was a castle in Dromesnil. In the 15th century it was rebuilt after the Hundred Years' War. Demolished in 1750 and replaced by the present building in 1752. Dromesnil Castle was built in the mid 18th century and remodeled in the 19th century. The Lordship of Dromesnil was established as a margraviate for the Hallencourt family, who owned the castle until 1749.

The route has little traffic and leads through an idyllic landscape.
