dc.description.abstractThe historic grain windmill at Xewkija, Gozo, was recently restored to its former glory and, located as it is on the main road between the harbour at Mġarr and Rabat, should now be an additional attraction both for the locals and for the many visitors to the Island. The restored windmill is shown in Figure 1. The windmill, which is colloquially known as ‘Il- Mitħna tat-Tmien Kantunieri’ (The Eight-Cornered Windmill), is the earliest surviving windmill in Gozo, having been built in 1710 by the Foundation of the Grandmaster of the Knights of St John Raymundo Perellos y Rocafull (1697-1720).en_GB
