The Windmills

Mykonos is a very windy island; so much so that windmills became essential features of the island's landscape. They were used to grind the agricultural produce of the island



They were built by the Venetians in the 16th century



These windmills are no longer operational



This row of windmills is the landmark of Mykonos
