Restoring Frank Lloyd Wright's 1896 Romeo and Juliet Windmill
The Romeo and Juliet Windmill was built by FLW as an education symbol for the Hillside Home School run by his aunts, in the Spring Green Wisconsin valley, where he was born, raised and knew every contour of the land.
It was the site to which his gaze was first directed on awakening, visible from his bedroom at Taliesin, the home he built in 1911 on his family's farmland. The history is presented by Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives
