The Mills of the Dnipropetrovsk Region. Needed or Not?

The first steam mills appeared on the territory of Ukraine at the end of the 19th century. Most often they were built by foreign specialists using European technologies and were equipped with a steam boiler and machinery of foreign manufacture. The flour was produced of a finer grind than at water- and wind-powered structures. Merchants and landowners approached the construction of flour-milling enterprises not only from a practical point of view; they adorned the buildings with architectural decorative elements.
