The windmill was used as one of the ancient processes for grinding cereals and producing flour. The wind made the sails spin, the movement of which was transmitted to the millstones that milled the cereals, in this case specifically the wheat. Currently most of the windmills in the Algarve are abandoned and in ruins but this one was specifically restored by its owner who preserved its cylindrical structure built in stone, the conical wooden dome called the chapel and the 4 triangular cloth sails.

In this property stands out the mix of traditional recovered and modernized to meet the needs of today and leaving its use open.
