The Bonne Chiere Windmill in Bruges, Belgium


There was already a windmill at this location in 1519 named "Bonnesiere", but in 1903 it fell over and got destroyed by the wind. In 1911 it was replaced by the current windmill which was moved from Olsene. The windmill in Bruges was never operational. In 1943 it became a protected heritage site.
