The Montefiore Windmill (Jaffa Gate Mill), Jerusalem, Israel
The Montefiore Windmill (less-commonly known as the Jaffa Gate Mill) is a landmark windmill in Jerusalem, Israel. Built in the Mishkenot Sha'ananim neighborhood in 1857, which was then in Ottoman-ruled Palestine, it was designed as a flour mill.
The windmill serves as a small museum dedicated to the achievements of Moses Montefiore. It was restored in 2012 with a new cap and sails in the style of the originals. The mill can turn in the wind.

The Montefiore Windmill is a landmark windmill in Jerusalem, Israel. Designed as a flour mill, it was built in 1857 on a slope opposite the western city walls of Jerusalem, where three years later the new Jewish neighbourhood of Mishkenot Sha'ananim was erected, both by the efforts of British Jewish banker and philanthropist Moses Montefiore. Jerusalem at the time was part of Ottoman-ruled Palestine. Today the windmill serves as a small museum honored and dedicated to the achievements of Montefiore. It was restored in 2012 with a new cap and sails in the style of the originals.

Jerusalem’s historic Montefiore Windmill has been reborn
When British-Jewish philanthropist Sir Moses Montefiore purchased a plot of land near Jerusalem’s Old City in the mid-19th century, he helped sow the seeds of the first Jewish neighborhood built outside the historic Ottoman-era walls. In the hopes of encouraging self-sufficiency and lifting the local Jewish population out of poverty, he also spearheaded the construction of a traditional Dutch windmill for the production of flour. Roughly 150 years later, the long-neglected structure—with its massive stone walls and narrow windows—has been reborn after years of extensive renovation.

Montefiore's Windmill Turns Again in Jerusalem
Since the 1880s, the windmill built by Sir Moses Montefiore in Mishkenot Sha'ananim -- the first neighborhood built outside the walls of Jerusalem's Old City -- has stood static, the vanes no longer turning in the wind.
Still, the windmill has always been a symbol of Jerusalem, marking the very first baby steps outside the walls, the beginning of a process that led to the massive expansion of Jerusalem in the following years, growing to the point that today's Jerusalem is over 125 times larger than the Old City itself.
Recently, the Jerusalem Foundation led a project to renovate the windmill to its prior grandeur, allowing it to turn again. The sails once again turn grinding stones that will grind flour out of which bread will be baked, and sold at the windmill itself.
I was walking home from guiding a tour in the Old City last week when I saw the windmill turning once again for the first time in about 125 years! Enjoy the video.

Montefiore Windmill Doesn't Do Much More Than Impress Touris
Moses Montefiore built with his money the windmill that doesn't spin, but makes it instead into every image of the Jerusalem skyline.

Here's a look at the windmill he built. 2/18/2008

The Montefiore Windmill
The new Montefiore Windmill is a reconstruction of the original Mishkenot Sha’ananim windmill built in 1857. It was inaugurated on August 2012, and the first bag of flour was produced on May 2013.
The Montefiore windmill is now fully operational, just as it was so many years ago. However, in addition to the wind mechanism it is also equipped with an electric motor for days of insufficient wind.
Visitors are welcome to enter the structure and watch a short video featuring the historical significance of the windmill in the resettlement of Jews outside of the Old City’s walls and the following rise of modern Jerusalem.
The Sir Moses Montefiore Windmill at Mishkenot Sha’ananim is an iconic Jerusalem landmark. Its renovation is a symbol of the spirit of Jerusalem: a unique fusion of old and new, a city of rich history and brilliant future.
For information on hours of operation please call 02-6230323
