Many of the windmills I have seen in Portugal are in ruins. However,I found one in the center of Odiaxere, in the plaza, that has been restored. I have not had a chance to go inside to check it out, though, because it is always locked. I read that this windmill used to be in operation a few years back but I do not see any activity each time I pass by. For now, it is a historical landmark. Before the pandemic, this square was busy during mercado weekends. Although there is not a lot of vendors, I enjoy buying plants and small trees for such a great bargain. You can also find cheese, sausages, sweets, clothes and other wares here.
