El Molino Grande De Sapelló, the Big Mill from Sapelló, made flour for the soldiers at Fort Union until the fort closed in 1891. Its machinery was manufactured in Buffalo, New York, and shipped over the Santa Fe Trail to New Mexico in the 1870's. After turning the wheel, the water flows into a small rio (river). When the mill is not in use, the water is diverted into the laguna, shown in photograph 23. July 2000 |
