A beautifl mill in Piedmont (Italy), but the story of this mill is so sad.

Lovely view of the windmill. But what is the sad story?  I'm intrigued.

This windmill was erected by a local businessman after the untimely death of his son in the late 1960s.
His son was a Dutch windmill loving. So he built this windmill in his memory
