  4. The Moulin des Cinq
    As you enter the village, you'll come to Rue du Moulin des Cinq. A number of names and vestiges recall the milling industry's presence in the commune: Moulins des Cinq, du Roi, des Ortinières, Bédier, Beleau, Brûlé... Most of Beaulieu's windmills are moulins caviers. The moulin cavier is a typical windmill in Anjou. It consists of a mobile body
    known as the hucherolle, which supports the wings and contains only the gear mechanism. The hucherolle rests on a conical masonry structure built over a cellar housing the milling equipment, hence the name
    cavier mill.
