Dutch windmill

The windmill was built in 1897 (from the 1890s). It is an entirely wooden structure in the shape of a truncated pyramid with an octagonal cross-section, featuring a rotating cap and four sails. It was commissioned by Jan Hanyzewski and made by a specialised company from Berlin to serve local farmers.
