Rottingdean Windmill

Highlight • Historical Site

These old windmills are the best proof that people were clever enough a number of centuries ago - long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions that resulted from it - to harness the power of the elements for their own purposes: no human or animal muscle power is needed for the grinding process, but the wind captured by the covered wings is enough to drive the heavy millstones and thus, for example, to grind flour from grain (grain mills) or to press oil from olives (oil mills). Often they are only technical and historical evidence of a long tradition of craftsmanship, because most of the old mills have been abandoned over time.

Steve Ovett Statue

Highlight • Monument

As a middle-distance runner, he won gold medals in the 800 meters at the 1980 Moscow Olympic Games. Ovett set five world records in the 1500 meters and one mile and achieved a world record in the two-mile. From 1977 to 1980, he won 45 consecutive 1500-meter and mile races.

Volk’s Electric Railway

Highlight • Monument

Oldest electric train in Great Britain and a Brighton highlight, because a ride on the Volk’s Electric Railway with a gauge of 825 millimeters is not just for train lovers. The route between the final stops “Aquarium Station” and “Black Rock” offers wonderful views of the beach.
