The Moulin des Buttes, the only mill in the village
It dates from the end of the 19th - beginning of the 20th century and was built in stone. Today it is the only remaining mill in Les Touches. He produced white flour that was used to make bread. He also crushed grain for livestock. It operated successively with sails and then with electricity. It then became a flour mill, that is to say a flour mill. The lower part surrounding the mill was the store. The flour mill produced flour for bread, and the mill produced flour for the animals. It was only in 1991 that the activity ceased. In the past the commune had 8 windmills and a water mill.
