Moulin de la Tour (Ivry-sur-Seine)
Moulin de la Tour is a windmill in Ivry-sur-Seine, near Paris, France. Built in the 17th century, it stood in the Ivry-Saint-Frambourg area and worked until the early 19th century. It appears in records from 1680 and on a 1765 royal map when it was sold to miller Charles Mortier, and later it was used as a warehouse. By the 20th century it was dilapidated and without its wings, and demolition was threatened.
In 1975, Ivry-sur-Seine’s town council and a preservation group saved the mill. On May 6, 1976, it was moved about 35 meters on hydraulic jacks along two narrow-gauge tracks, restored, and opened to visitors. It is the only surviving windmill in Val-de-Marne and was listed as a Historic Monument in 1979. Ownership: Commune of Ivry-sur-Seine. Coordinates: 48.81778°N, 2.37361°E.
