Fun Facts about Windmills

1)  Windmills used to be so prevalent in the Dutch landscape, and more than 10,000 were used for industrial purposes. Later, they gradually disappeared as other sources were preferred, such as steam, then eventually diesel, and electricity.

2)    Did you know that the Dutch love the windmills so much, they dedicated a day in mid-May to celebrate it? They have a National Windmill Day. It's a time of the year when they decorate the windmills with flowers, figures of angels, or Dutch flags.

3)   Windmills have many functions. They are true all-rounders. Many people believe windmills were only used to make flour out of grain.
