Most of the building dates from the 14th and 15th century, with some renovations from the 19th century. The mill was operating until the early 20th century.

A place to share cool castles!
Post images or any other content relating to castles, châteaux, palaces, towers, keeps, fortresses, and follies. The following content is encouraged but not required:
- Castle name in native language (English name) - location [include country and region, if not city/town]
- Best website (official or otherwise)
- Some sort of map link
- Visitation details: open/closed to public, closed but technically reachable, tours?, etc.
- History: Whatever can be briefly copy-pasted
More than just images are welcome. Only real rule is that content must refer to a real-life structure, so please no fantasy/fictional castles! Reasonable exceptions include media showcasing period life and technology that somehow relates to castles.

Neat! Looks like it's actually Loubens: https://maps.app.goo.gl/my6YKGzkBT3DQ9i79
There's apparently a few cool mills around the area: https://www.gironde-tourisme.com/en/discover-the-gironde/Cultural-Heritage/the-mills-of-gironde/
The name stems from Latin Lupus or lupercus, so the town most likely gree out of a Roman farmstead.
