  1. ^ This windmill is of a location named after a watermill being the heart of a large property (usually called "Le moulin des Roberts" because it used to belong to the Robert family). According to the "Archives départementales de Vaucluse", these two mills were in the 18th and 19th century the biggest for production in the Gordes area.
