The first windmills are believed to have been built in Persia (modern-day Iran) around the 9th century AD. These early windmills were vertical-axis designs used primarily for grinding grain and pumping water. The concept later spread to other regions, evolving into the horizontal-axis windmills commonly associated with Europe, particularly in the Netherlands.
