Ta Kola Windmill

A restored windmill in Xagħra reveals the machinery and household behind Gozo's grain milling. Its museum offers a small-scale rural contrast to the nearby prehistoric temples.

Ta Kola Windmill

Why go

The round tower rises through rooms once used by the miller, bringing work and domestic life into the same building. Restored sails and milling equipment explain how wind became useful power. Traditional woodworking and ironworking tools broaden the story beyond grain, showing the skills needed to maintain a working rural household.

What to look for

  • The round windmill tower and sails
  • Restored milling machinery
  • The miller's living quarters and tools

Useful to know

  • Combine the windmill with Ġgantija in Xagħra.
  • Look at the domestic rooms as well as the machinery to understand the miller's working life.
