3 km south-east of the village of Gontaud-de-Nogaret towards Tonneins, the Bourdeille mill, known as Gibra, benefits from the prevailing winds coming from the west on its mound at the top of a hill. From Pech-de-Bère in the south – where the Lot flows into the Garonne – to the town of Marmande in the northwest, it offers you from its privileged location a profound panorama of the Garonne valley.
The Gibra windmill benefited from a restoration in the early 80s, a perfect example of safeguarding local heritage. It has all the equipment for turning in the wind and grinding grain, and on windy days (and open to the public) you can watch milling demonstrations.
