Short descriptionThe mill was transported here in 1878 from nearby village Sádek, where it used to stand since 1833. Workable until 1954. People from The Care Of Historical Monuments are helping with the renovations since 1858. Reconstructed in 1969 and opened for public with tools exposition in the same year.
ExpositionsExpositions of complete wind-mill technical equipment and hatchet tools, petit exhibition of small tools and agricultural neccessities.
Interesting detailStill workable, today's owner is the third generation of the same owner's clan.
ValuationVisitors have an unique chance to see a completely preserved interior and equipment in this wind-mill. Guide mr. Pavelka is able to give a very insight commentary.

Touristic information
Sightseeing tourWithout a permanent guide, occassionally mr. Pavelek. Sightseeing tour only after previous agreement with mr. Pavelek, who lives in a white house above the wind-mill (emblem of a key on his mailbox) but he is often out of town. Or with the owner, who lives in a white house on hill under the mill, by the entrance to Choltice (cca 300 metres). He very rarely comes to the mill, considering his age. Sightseeing tour duration cca 30 mins.
