From the Moulin de la Minière, a panoramic view of the Nantes vineyards
The mill's main function was to grind cereals, which were essential for feeding the local population. The mill was thus a central part of economic and social life, frequented by farmers from the surrounding area who brought their grain there. From the XIXᵉ century onwards, changes in technology, competition from industrial flour mills and the development of new modes of transport led to the gradual decline of traditional mills.
In autumn 2022, the local authority installed interpretation panels.
Outside the mill, furniture in the style of the old mill wings has been installed, highlighting the history of the mill and its mechanism, while also promoting the tourist attractions of the vineyards.
Inside the mill, on 2 floors, orientation tables in enamelled lava present the different sites visible from the mill while evoking the work of the vine over the 4 seasons.

On-site picnic table.
The site is only accessible on foot or by bike.
The nearest parking is at the Etang des Tuileries.
