The country of wind and windmills

At the crossroads of Bourget, turn to see on the horizon the two ruined towers of the hamlet of La Mure. These are two old windmills. Vassieux had 8 in all. The last one stopped grinding in 1878. It must be said that this vast plateau open to the north and south is particularly windy (you may have realized if you forgot your little wool!). The mills of Vassieux are the only ones known in the Alps.
