Inside the Windmill


Until 1910 millers used to live inside the mill. A tiny little living space not much larger than the average children room. By 1910 a social law against poor living conditions was passed and the white house you’ve seen on the previous post was build.


The same window from the outside.


I think it must have been very cozy, when having no children but with a bunch of kids it must have been quite unpleasant.
