Why is the Moulin à vent dit Moulin Trouillet so special? It stands here as a solitary sentinel on this hill in Sannois. It’s a poignant reminder of the area’s rich past. The Moulin à vent dit Moulin Trouillet dates back to the 18th century. It was constructed around 1759. The mill operated until 1866. Its whitewashed form has stood against the backdrop of changing times. The Moulin à vent dit Moulin Trouillet isn’t just any windmill. It stands as a proud representative of a bygone era. It’s a rare surviving example of a pivot windmill in the Paris region. Imagine the sight of its sails turning gracefully in the wind. It’s a sight captured in the artwork of Maurice Utrillo who found inspiration in the Moulin à vent dit Moulin Trouillet and other nearby mills. Today those other mills are gone. Only this one remains, a silent sentinel guarding the memory of a time when wind powered daily life.
