Meškuičiai Windmill

Year of construction: 1867. It is said that the construction was started by an unknown pastor. The mill stands by the Meškuičiai–Gibaičiai road. The former miller's homestead is nearby. There is different information about it. Some say that the current residential house was built by Donskiai and stands on the foundations of the former miller's house, others say that the house built by the miller Stočkus still stands today. In 1986, the homestead included a residential house, an outbuilding, and a garden. The mill has preserved equipment: a frame with lower and upper gears; two millstone spindles with stands on the second floor; stone and cast millstones on the third floor; a shear lever for lifting the millstones on the third floor; a bag lifting mechanism and two grain hoppers on the fourth floor; wing shaft with wing gear, cast iron wing shaft head in the fifth half-height and cap. The cap was drilled with a drawbar.
