Description

Built around 1258 by Carthusian monks, this charming mill has benefited for centuries from the waters of the Reyssouze, the river that runs through Bresse. Admire this wheat mill and its 4 levels, where millstones, cylinders, sack-lift ... are in operation
The former miller, owner of the place and active member of the Friends of the Ain mills, will tell you a whole part of the Bresse history in this place referenced on the Route of the most beautiful mills of France.

Push the door of Bruno's mill and discover its history and mechanisms. Mill until 1789 for the monks, then for a century for the counts of la Boulaye, it became an electric factory for a while. Later on, it became a flour mill again and finally specialized in animal feed. Today, it is open to you for a plunge into the past and traditions, where young and old are sure to marvel. Children will be able to touch, test and put themselves in the shoes of a miller during a visit.

For a unique experience, you will witness the live production of electricity in 110 volts thanks to a dynamo of 1908. 2 turbines are also dedicated to the production of renewable energy, clean (electricity).

So make a stop in this peaceful place and be welcome at Bruno's Mill!
