The Old Watermill

Our Story: The old water mill was built and operated before 1850.It is the 10th watermill of a series of mills that operated with the same water. Gradually the mills were abandoned , except the "Old watermill", that worked until 1974 In the past, access to the area was difficult and was only by horse. For this reason, the watermill was chosen as the headquarters of the resistance against the occupation 1941-1944 and EAM rebels after liberation. The watermill many years before the war and until 1945 was a tavern.The mill was declared a monument as requested by the 26th DAC Kalamata and from Western Greece Modern Monuments Service. The reconstruction was carried out with absolute respect for the old building.The watermill works like old times, it grinds wheat by water power Today the visitor can make purchases from the small shop where products are of top quality and beauty.Enjoy a coffee or drink in the cafe area. Or take a stroll in the beautiful gardens with lemon and orange trees
