Or is my imagination rather stretched?
In any case that's a rather old thing, dating back in 1852, renovated in 1983. Today it mills flour for the local bakeries but also sells to individuals and if you're lucky to find the guys who run this at a non busy time they'll show you around.
No I do so but only from the outside as I am here at non working hours:

On my way I find the cutest gardening of all:

How cool is to wake up daily to that view?

Not so envious though myself as back home I have a generous garden that offers me daily stuff like this,

and as generous chickens providing me eggs for dishes like this:

Bon Appetit!
