Although there were many windmills in the 19th century on Montmartre (they were used to make flour, but also to extract juice from grapes for wine-making), only 2 are left today, collectively known as "Moulin de la Galette". Moulin (Windmill) Radet was built in 1717. In 1834 it is turned into a bar/music hall and becomes known as Moulin de la Galette.
