Fleurac Mill
Highlight • Other
Abandoned for several decades, it was transformed into a paper mill in 1978 by Mr. Lacombe, descendant of a family of papermakers for four generations. Faced with financial difficulties, this attempt was taken over by an association “Les amis de la tradition papetière d’Angoumois et des provinces voisins” which relaunched the activity of this mill, where paper was made in a vat from linen and cotton using 18th century techniques.
The manufacturing equipment and the water wheel were rebuilt. It has been listed as a historic monument since 1984.
Today, the Moulin de Fleurac is private property but the site of this mill on the banks of the Charente remains a very popular place for tourists.

Very easy to reach by bike from Angoulême, including for children. Ideal destination for families - with young children - looking for a short cycling adventure from the center of Angoulême.
Possibility of crossing the Charente and joining Saint-Michel further south.
