The windmills of Apra are inactive. In fact they are both ruins, one of them having a geodetic mark on its top. It's not easy to get there, definitely not a drive in. There are several accesses but some walk will be required.
However, with the right weather, it will be a lovely stroll and the views from the windmill are truly rewarding. It's open and there are stairs to climb to the upper floor and enjoy the views at their best.
It was used to grinder wheat, producing flour.
Purpose: Milling
Open to the public: yes
Is This Windmill Functional?: No
