In the 13th century there are traces of a knitting mill that softened hemp cloth and wool felt, a flour mill with 7 pairs of millstones and an oil press.

In 1713, the separation of the original mill into two lots caused 3 centuries of conflicts, hatred and lawsuits. 

In 1840, the mills of Daumail were converted into stone mills, known as pebble mills. The aim was to supply the new porcelain industry with prepared kaolin paste and enamel. Thus was born in the middle of the romantic and charming paradise of the rocky chaos of the Vienne valley, a terrible example of the heavy and brutal proto-industrial machinery of the late 19th century.



In 1976 the Tharaud factory and 1983 the Ceradel factory stopped their deleterious operation for good. The interweaving of buildings, industrial competition, the birth of social struggles and the fierce hatred between the descendants of the two mills for nearly 300 years enamelled their history with dramas and anecdotes.

Since 1989, the two mills have been united under one hand and have resumed their activity, in a hotel residence since 1999, and in a museum.

Cradles of the first social struggles, the mills stopped operating definitively in 1983.

In 2006, the association "Musée du Daumail, moulin à cailloux, émail et pâtes à porcelaine" (Daumail Museum, pebble, enamel and porcelain paste mill) was created in order to maintain the social memory of workers and employers around the architectural and technological heritage of the mills on the theme of the links between power and energy.
