Review & FAQ:
Fulton is a small town on the Mississippi River full of history and charm. A 100-foot tall Dutch windmill is among the town’s main attractions. It was built in the Netherlands, and traveled in pieces to Fulton, where it was re-assembled during the Dutch Days Festival in the year 2000. The fully operational windmill produces wheat, rye, buckwheat and corn flour which are all for sale in the nearby Windmill Cultural Center. Historic attractions include Heritage Canyon, a 12-acre limestone quarry now offering hiking trails, and the Fulton House and Historical Society Museum. Fishing, birding and boating is popular on and around the Mississippi River.
