Wind Mill in Hlavnice<br />

The wooden wind mill of column or rammer type was built in 1810 <strong>and</strong> in 1952 it<br />

ground for the last time. Along with the homestead it depicts the way of life in this<br />

region at the turn of the 19th <strong>and</strong> 20th centuries. At present it cannot grind any more<br />

because the interior equipment is missing.<br />
