Technological Milestones

Technology is found in all spheres of human activity, and naturally in mills as well.

The Farinera of Castelló d’Empúries offers a wide range of technological applications: from wind turbines to draw in air to the rollers that power the mills’ cylinders.

How do machines work? The technological milestones you can download in PDFs will shed light on basic milling technology.
