Description

A landmark in the countryside

Windmills are among those buildings everyone recognises at once: a round or conical tower with large sails turning in the wind. Rebuilt in bricks the motif works especially well, because the sails give the model character immediately. At 211 pieces this set is not large, but it is illustrative. It shows how simple shapes can make a rural landmark that looks good on a shelf or on a baseplate next to farmhouses.

Variety of parts and colours

What stands out is the high share of special shapes: 46 different parts among only 211 pieces means that many shapes appear just once or a few times. That points to a model with detail, where windows, sails and roof pieces need elements of their own. Blue, black, red and yellow set the colour scheme. The parts list on this page shows each element with its colour and quantity, which helps a lot when you check a second-hand set.

Two figures and a scene

Two minifigures are enough to fill the mill with life: a miller and someone bringing grain or collecting flour. If you like, you can build a small farmyard, a cart or a field alongside. The windmill is therefore a good example of a set that invites you to keep telling the story. It also works as a display piece, because the tall build creates a focal point on the shelf without needing much space.

Making something new from the parts

If you already own bricks in these colours, “What can I build?” shows which sets you could rebuild completely or almost completely. Blue, black, red and yellow are widespread colours, so many of the bricks are probably already in your collection. Missing special parts can be found through the parts list, so you can buy exactly what you lack. That way you can build or vary the windmill even if you never held the original set.
