快速信息: The windmill powerfully symbolized Tralee's agricultural past and still spins its sails on windy days, making a striking sight. The original mechanism grinds grain into flour as it did centuries ago, offering a glimpse into pre-industrial life.

亮点: The windmill’s 65-foot tall tower boasts handcrafted wooden gears weighing several tons, all visible during guided tours that share behind-the-scenes milling secrets. Visitors can witness the giant sails turning against the sky, an almost hypnotic dance powered purely by the wind.
