It's easier for someone who is familiar with ancient mechanical technologies. :wink: These photos represent the famous watermill and aqueduct in Barbegal, France.

Wow!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!

I could see that there was an aqueduct involved, Ildar. But I have only ever seen the (very famous) drawing of Barbegal.

Thank you for sharing it with us, Christian!
Hmmm... that is indeed special. What I actually meant is that there are two aquaeducts running parallel to each other over a considerable distance. The eastern aqueduct is split for the two lines of mills after it breaks through the rock, the western aqueduct turns westwards within the rock. In the pic below you see this from west-north-west. The second pic shows the two aquaeducts running parallel, the right (eastern) aqueduct is much more damaged, though.
