Dujkov mlyn – The mill of Emil Dujka was built in 1936 on electric propulsion using Francisci turbines. The mill will be reconstructed so the visitors can see interior, working machines, make familiar with the history of miller´s trade in our country.
The Water-mill in village Mikulůvka, close to Valašské Miziříčí (CZ) is nowadays national cultural monument. The mill needs to be reconstructed because of his bad condition.
