Rural and grassy environments in fiction seem to frequently feature windmills (especially if said environments are Dutch). Once used to mill grain or pump water, windmills have long since been superseded thanks to the advent of more recent technologies, although there has been a movement in recent years to preserve, rebuild and use mills once again. They are nowadays similar to the lighthouses, serving no purpose other than being a distinctive landscape feature, often to add a rural, quaint flair, although they have occasionally been used to crank up the creepy factor. Works taking place in ancient times still feature them doing what they were intended for in the first place: grinding grains. They typically have 4 sails, but may have as many as 6 or as few as 3. Sister trope to Lighthouse Point, since windmills and lighthouses are usually used in the same way. See also Land of Tulips and Windmills for the Hollywood Atlas version of The Netherlands, which make an abundant use of this trope. Unrelated to Windmill Political, No Mere Windmill and Windmill Crusader (except for the Trope Namer). In video games, it's likely to appear in Gusty Glade levels. |

In Foreign Correspondent, the journalist Jones witnesses an assassination in Amsterdam, then pursues the killer into the countryside. He winds up in open plains, with dozens of windmills visible. One of these windmills is turning against the wind; Jones figures this must be a signal and goes to investigate. Sure enough, the killer's accomplices are hiding there. | |

An old, long-abandoned windmill is the star of Disney's 1937 short "The Old Mill". Said short shows the life of various wild animals that live in the windmill before and during a violent storm that culminate in a lightning strike hitting the old building, destroying one of its sails. | |

Kirby: The Fantasy Meadows in Kirby Air Ride is a quaint, grassland racetrack. A windmill (to enhance the "Meadows" part) with blades made out our dragonfly wings (supposedly for the "Fantasy" part) sits in the background of the track. The bucolic Cookie Country from Kirbys Return To Dreamland has gratuitous, three-sailed windmills in the background. What is unusual about them is they seem to be actual trees with three giant, rotating leaves. |

One of the main mysteries of Petscop is an example of this trope. It keeps disappearing, it rotates the opposite way multiple times, and it's an integral plot point. Apparently even mentioning the location is enough to get censored. | |

Mario Party 7: Windmillville is a cheery Holland-inspired map with windmills that you invest in to get stars. Each windmill will be owned by whoever player deposits the most coins in it, and the number of stars it has will be marked at the top of its entrance. The paths to the windmills are difficult to navigate, as they can only be crossed if the tulips' buds are open (and whenever a player crosses them, they'll close and make the other path's tulips open). | |

One of the landscapes the player can build after donating 1,000,000 Bells to the City Hall in Animal Crossing: City Folk is a windmill (the other is a lighthouse).

The Windy area in Conker's Bad Fur Day features a tall windmill at the top of the spiral mountain at the center, but by the time Conker tries to explore it Rodent accidentally destroys it when he's blown away from the exploding Tediz island. According to Conker himself, it was meant to be the last level in the game (and because of its destruction, the actual level that serves as the last is the Panther King's castle). | |

The Legend of Zelda The Kakariko village windmill in Ocarina of Time is the town's most prominent feature. It is actually a windpump, as it is used to draw up water from the well that sits in from of it. A big windmill-slash-lighthouse is the main landscape feature from Windfall Island in The Wind Waker. A rather smart choice for a power source if the name of the island is to be believed. In Skyward Sword, two windmills appear in Skyloft. The two actually are important to the plot, as rotating them toward the Light Tower activates it, which is crucial to find the Isle of Songs. |

In Outward there's a windmill in every main region of the game, but all are abandoned save the one in New Sirocco, which you have to build yourself as part of a resource production line. This is probably a reference to the now-defunct religion that once ruled the area and worshipped winds. | |

Super Mario Bros.: In Super Mario Sunshine, the Big Windmill in Bianco Hills is a prominent landscape feature with unknown purposes and its empty halls are where the first fight against Petey Piranha takes place. The Cloudy Court Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2 features giant windmills whose sole purpose is to blow wind with their rotating sails, and the currents created can be used by Cloud Mario to move around. In Paper Mario 64, the Windy Mill can be found at the bottom of the conveniently windy Gusty Gulch, and it looms ominously before the path to a Boo-infested village. It serves as the entrance to a Tunnel that leads to Tubba Blubba's heart. In Paper Mario: Sticker Star, the windmill in Hither Thither Hill contains a pipe that leads further through the level (and nothing else), but its door is blocked by one of the sails. Mario has to use the Fan sticker to blow strong gusts of wind that make it briefly rotate and unblock the access to the door. Moo Moo Meadows in Mario Kart Wii is a rural track which features a windmill as a background feature near the end of the racetrack to enhance the "farm" feeling. It returns in the Mario Kart 8 version of the course, and another windmill was added next to it. Some windmills act as scenery elements in the upbeat Mario Kart 7 racecourse "Daisy Hills".

The Yoshi's Woolly World level "Knitty-Knotty Windmill Hill" takes place in a grassland with an absurd number of windmills, some of which carry platforms on their sails so they can be used by Yoshi. |

As one could expect after seeing the level's name, many windmills appear in the "Windmill Hills" level from Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Their rotating blades carry platforms and the Kongs have to jump from one to the other carefully as not to fall in Bottomless Pits. |

Bug Fables: The Golden Settlement and the Golden Path leading to it have plenty of windmills, fitting for the primary breadbasket of Bugaria. It's also where you first learn to use Vi's Beemerang to spin various cranks that function much like the windmills. | |

The Fantasy Meadows in Kirby Air Ride is a quaint, grassland racetrack. A windmill (to enhance the "Meadows" part) with blades made out our dragonfly wings (supposedly for the "Fantasy" part) sits in the background of the track. | |

As one could expect after seeing the level's name, many windmills appear in the "Windmill Hills" level from Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Their rotating blades carry platforms and the Kongs have to jump from one to the other carefully as not to fall in Bottomless Pits. | |

Jonathan Creek lives in an old windmill that's been converted into a rather nice living space and workshop for Jonathan's day-job as producer, technician and Only Sane Employee for a stage illusionist. It's a kind of establishing character set, indicating that Jonathan is mildly eccentric and moderately wealthy. | |

The Witness: There's a windmill near the town in the center of the island. It's an important place to visit, since its basement features an underground theatre, as well as a shortcut to the cave system beneath the island. However, apart from a few environmental puzzles involving the sails, the fact that it's a windmill is not relevant and it could pretty much have been any other type of building. | |

A modern take on this trope are wind turbines, an obligatory trope for any depiction of an environmentally safe future. Action-wise however, Mission: Impossible III has a scene where our heroes in a Huey helicopter try to evade a pursuing Cobra gunship by flying through a wind farm. | |

The Gale Shrine in Ōkami is actually a giant windmill. Its purpose is to protect Kusa Village from evil forces by blowing the Divine Wind. Sadly, the Yokai managed to make it stop rotating, depriving Kusa Village of its protection and causing the town to slowly become a cursed zone. Thankfully, Amaterasu manages to save the day. | |

Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero? features windmills in its title screen, which also translates straight into its introductory level once a new game is selected. They are also seen in the Nethergrasslands, which typically serves as the first level players select given its simpler nature. In the sequel, they're seen in the Nethervalley, which serves the same purpose, though they appear to be more natural structures rather than constructed. | |

In BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm, a weary old windmill stands guard outside the haunted village of /x/. You’ll pass it by without much thought when you first arrive, but naturally you’ll need to uncover its secret before you leave. The chapter boss and the second PasSWORD shard are both hidden inside. | |

Super Smash Bros.: The Water version of the Pokémon Stadium stage in Melee has a large spinning windmill at the left of the arena whose sails can be used as platforms. The stage reappears in Brawl as well. In 3DS, the Hither-Thither Hill phase of the Paper Mario stage features the aforementioned level trademark windmill on the right side of the arena, and its sails can be stood upon. When the Fan appears in the background and starts blowing gusts of wind, it starts spinning frantically, and the players will not be able to stand on it anymore. In Wii U, the Windy Hill Zone stage has a giant windmill on the right. Only a portion of the spinning mill is within the blastlines, so standing on it carries the risk of being swooped away from the stage straight into a KO. |
