Additional description
We reached Voynovo at the end of 2018. Deep snow, ribbons on the birch near the mill. View of Klyazma river. The windmill is standing. As a ruin, but it is still standing. There are some signs of sheathing. There is no cap for a long time, upright shaft is sticking out of the windmill. Amazing detail - there is no door in this mill. It is so slipped down that you need to crawl under one of the walls to get inside. The windmill looks like an impregnable castle. Sadly, everything inside is destroyed.
