Karaes Windmill
Karaes Windmill, just a short distance from the Créac'h Lighthouse, was entirely restored by the Regional Armorique Park. It is the only surviving windmill to be seen today on the island, which used to have well over a hundred mills in former times. Forty or so mills were still in use after the second world war , when the islanders had to start growing oats an barley again.
As they were conceived for milling barley, the flour produced was very coarse and unbolted and was used to make a rather rough bread and farz oaled (garnished ovenbaked piecrust)
