'Xarolla Windmill' - Zurrieq Malta

Built by the knights of the military of St. John in the seventh century. This is the only functional windmill on the island.

I have never seen this windmill during my time in Malta. I can tell you that last time I went to Zurrieq 1996 I got lost.

Maybe next time.

A nice photograph. I like it. What is it used for or what was it built to do?
