Model of a windmil named Finskan. Described in the directory of 1779 as "Model of an ordinary windmill, standing here in Stockholm between St. Catharina church and Götgatan, known under the name Finskan. Is a so-called German mill or Post mill, which as a whole is turned on its foot to face the wind, and is one of the best built here: but what has proved to be useful in other such mills, and is missing in this one, such things are added to this model for more perfection.".
