Forclaz Mill

This is a historic relic that is located 4 km from the city of Colón (Entre Rios). The entire area is full of lush landscape and is very nice. This mill was built in 1888 by D. Juan Forclaz and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1985. It´s a symbol of the effort and determination of the early settlers. It was designed to grind wheat and corn grains like the Dutch did but since powerful winds were needed, the climate of the region never allowed this mill to be fully operational. The owner had to switch back to the old system of milling. Today the windmill stands gracefully and is a great site
