THE WINDMILL – MELENCI

Intro

Bošnjakov windmill (wind propelled mill) was built on the outskirts of the village, near the road to Bašaid in 1899. It is built in a combination of brick and adobe, in the form of a sharp cone, with the shingle root. Through a movable roof, which can be rotated, a massive axis with wings to capture the wind once passed, which was also a driver for the movement of the mechanism. The wings are missing now, and the wooden mechanism is heavily damaged.
