Wind Mill
The windmill in Třebíč, also known as Větrník, was built by the industrialists František and Karel Budischowsky for the needs of their tanning plants in the local part of the town called Borovina. According to the original design, the mill was supposed to be wooden, but finally the building was made of stone and brick masonry.
A multi-storey building of the Dutch-style mill, 8 meters in diameter, was built at the railway line in 1836 and was used to grind the tree bark for tan, used by tanneries to tan leather.
The mill crushed the bark until the second half of the 19th century. Since 1929 it served as an emergency apartment and the last tenant moved out in 1977. The building was then modified as a technical monument.
