Windmills in Crete!!!

in #greek-trail5 years ago

This is a windmill located in Lasithi, Crete.

There used to be more than a thousand windmills there. Some where used for grinding wheat but most of them were used for pumping water for agricultural purposes.

Nowadays, only 18 of them are left untouched.
