This wonderful world of windmills (30 photos)

Windmills have been with us for about 4 thousand years, and at different times they served humanity not only as a tool for processing grain - before the invention of the wind-driven steam engine, they managed to organize almost anything: from chemical production to water pumping stations. Well, now that engines with much greater efficiency have been invented, we can simply admire these wonderful structures!
