Only a short distance from the aqueduct stands a wonder of Epirus’ industrial past that carries on a tradition that goes back more than 185 years. The watermill of Hagios Georgios was built in 1832 to take advantage of the abundant waters of the Louros river. Back then it belonged to an Ottoman landowner, but the nearby church of Saint George bought the property in 1854 and has owned it ever since. A few years ago the mill was rented to a local family, who were eager to make a new beginning by investing in a traditional industry. The mill employs the rapid flow of the river (3 cubic meters per second) to make corn and wheat flour for bakeries as far away as Ioannina, Arta, and Preveza.
