The Mosėdis Water Mill, situated at Salantai Street 2 in Mosėdis, attracts tourists with its historical, architectural, and technological value. This two-story building, constructed in 1792, features a unique stone masonry façade, a tiled roof, and wooden ornamented window shutters. During the 1978 restoration under the project by V. Guogis, the mill was adapted into a museum that now houses the Vaclovas Intas Stone Museum collection. Here, visitors can see various mineral and paleontological finds, Lithuanian minerals, ancient millstones, and even stones formed within

the human body. The surroundings of the water mill are equally impressive—the area includes a preserved dam, channel, retaining wall, and a restored wooden water wheel. This is a perfect place to explore authentic Lithuanian architecture and culture. The mill spaces have been adapted for museum activities, with specially designed exhibition halls, auxiliary rooms, and a guest room with a kitchenette. The entire Mosėdis Water Mill has been included in the Register of Immovable Cultural Heritage of the Republic of Lithuania as a state-protected site since 2005.
