Postcard from Malta: The Three Windmills – Les trois moulins

1827_xarolla
Today we visited the town of Zurrieq which has four 18th century windmills. The best preserved is Xarolla which has sails and still works, while the others, Marmara, Qaret (2 photos, taken from the back and front) and Salib only have the base and tower left. We didn’t get as far as Salib.
Aujourd’hui nous avons visité la ville de Zurrieq qui possède quatre moulins à vent du 18ème siècle. Le mieux préservé est celui de Xarolla qui a encore ses ailes et fonctionne tandis que les autres : Marmara, Qaret (deux photos, prises de devant et derrière) et Salib, n’ont plus que leurs bases et tours. Nous ne sommes pas allés jusqu’à Salib.
