Albi Mills
Once, ten mills dotted the two banks of the Tarn. After the French Revolution, only four remained: the Gard, Lamothe, and Chapitre mills and the Moulin-Neuf (New Mill). Afterwards called the "Moulin de l'Algigeois".A mill existed on this site as early as the 13th century. Overhauled, it became the headquarters of the flour mill in 1828, and was later converted into a vermicelli factory in 1845.After flourishing for years, the Moulins de l'Albigeois Company closed its doors in 1970.After a renovation in 1986, these buildings now house the Lap?rouse museum, a hotel, residences, the offices of the regional authority and a centre for contemporary art called LAIT.[Spanish translation not transcribed.]
