Windmühle

Windmühle Review

The landmark of the town is the pretty Windmühle, a 19th-century windmill set in the middle of vineyards on the edge of town, and the only remaining historic windmill in Austria that is still operable today. The windmill, with its well-preserved grinding wheel, can be visited. Follow the markers leading up to the summit, where you can sit and rest on benches offering a stunning view of the surrounding countryside.
