Windmills

Return to A-Z Guide

 

Windmills can be found on many parts of Lefkas Island, but most can be seen on the West and North coasts, and in the mountains above Eglouvi Village - for obvious reasons as these are the windiest parts of the Island and closest to the source of grain.

Most of the windmills have fallen derelict over the years, but some renovation work is now being carried on, especially to those windmills to the north of Lefkas Town.

A different windmill, but they all look quite similar.  Lefkadian windmill design never did win any awards for originality

Several renovated windmills are located along the coast north of Lefkada Town
