Windmills Historical Markers
Windmills have been used by humanity for more than a millennia to harness power for a variety of work. The series includes markers describing actual windmills and replica non-working windmills built for tourism, novelty, or other purposes. (It does not include markers that simply include the word Windmill in the text.)
