Mennonite Heritage Village

The windmill represents the ingenuity and skill of the Mennonite pioneers who built these amazing structures in many of their principal villages in Southern Manitoba. The first windmill in Steinbach was built in 1877 by Abram Friesen, just three years after his arrival in the province. The windmill on site is full operation and was built in 2001 by local trades people and Dutch millwrights.

Cute little windmill opposite the Clock Tower in Melaka Raya. I wonder if it had any historical significance? I can only think that it's probably a icon to remind us that the Dutch once colonized Malacca in the 1600s.

After a number of grants and charity gifts this Windmill was restored and open to the public.

The money has now run out and it's now closed! Shame as it is a beautiful windmill in a lovely setting.

And it was also the windmill used in Jonathan Creek .
