A restored windmill with open views

Restored in 2002, the windmill retains a wooden mechanism in working order. The panorama opens towards Cavalaire and Saint-Tropez: take time to pick out the hills and coastline.

Getting there from Ramatuelle

The Castellas site is around two kilometres from the village, on the road towards Gassin. Check your route before setting out and wear comfortable shoes for exploring the surroundings.

Interior visits: check the calendar and weather

Les Amis des Moulins de Ramatuelle runs the guided openings listed by the tourist office. The visit listing states voluntary contributions and cancellation in bad weather. Check the next session before travelling: seeing the surroundings does not mean the mechanism is accessible every day.
