★★★★★a month agoThis is REALLY great!! Definitely worth a visit and a tour! The team does a great job, we got lucky and we saw the muller in action!! The tour guide was so helpful and nice :)
Joana Moreira
★★★★★a month agoVery nice experience! The lady at the ticket counter was specially kind and gave the kids coloring sheets and a book with instructions to build your own windmill. The tour was very interesting and well organized. The windmill is still active and has a museum component, which makes it interactive and more engaging.
