The mills of Ainata

Town: Ainata

Coordinates: Location

The mills of Ainata have played a significant role in the region’s history and economy for centuries and were used processing of wheat, barley and other grains.

Typically small, traditional structures, the mills were passed down from one generation to the next. One of these mills still functions in the way it has done for centuries, with traditional techniques and equipment.

The mills consist of large stone wheels that grind the grains into flour, powered by the force of water flowing from nearby streams and springs.
