LE MOULIN À GRAIN
Grain mill from 1246, built by the Templars on a Phoenician model in Coursegoules
Located below the village, near the bridge of the Cagne when you arrive at Coursegoules, the grain mill dates from 1246. It was built by the Templars on a Phoenician model. For centuries, Coursegoules was famous for supplying Vence with wheat. Better still, the Coursegoulois were even nicknamed the "Estripans" by the neighboring towns, in other words, those who could afford to tear up the bread and stuff themselves with it. The Coursegoules mill stopped working at the end of the 19th century. Today it has been restored but cannot be visited.
