This remarkable windmill, situated on the picturesque shores of Rhodes Island, has been an enduring part of the island’s history and our family’s legacy. Operated by our family for generations, the windmill was instrumental in providing fresh bread for the people of Rhodes. It served not only as a practical facility but also as a community cornerstone, where the rhythm of daily life often revolved around its sails.
The windmill is a classic example of traditional craftsmanship. Built in the cylindrical stone style, it features a rotating conical roof designed to follow the direction of the wind, adorned with a distinctive straw “hat.” Its operation relied on white triangular sails affixed to large wooden antennas, which harnessed the wind’s power to drive an intricate system of axes and wheels. These mechanisms turned the upper millstone over a stationary lower one to grind grains such as wheat, barley, and corn into fine flour.
With favorable winds, the windmill could work tirelessly, sometimes operating 24 hours a day to meet seasonal demands or weather conditions. It had the capacity to grind 20-70 kilograms of wheat per hour, a vital contribution to the sustenance of the island’s population.
The windmill was a bustling center of activity. Villagers would bring their crops to be milled, often carrying heavy sacks of grain on foot or by donkey. Women also played a significant role, taking part in the demanding task of transporting grain to and from the mill. As compensation for the service, the mill man would retain 10% of the milled product.
Operating a windmill required more than technical skill—it demanded a keen understanding of nature. The mill men were highly respected for their ability to interpret weather patterns, assess wind strength, and skillfully manage the sails to optimize efficiency. These traits likened them to captains of the sea, navigating the forces of nature with expertise.
Today, this windmill stands as a cherished historical monument, offering a glimpse into Rhodes Island’s rich agricultural heritage and the ingenuity of those who once worked tirelessly within its walls.
