Bonne Chière Windmill

Bonne Chière Windmill, Bruges

A wooden post mill standing on the grassy ramparts of eastern Bruges. Erected before 1824 at Heirweg, moved to Olsene in 1844, and rebuilt here in 1911, it has never milled grain in the city, surviving instead as a picturesque landmark and protected monument on the Kruisvest.
