Mill Info:
The Old Mill was built in the early 1800s and is a great piece of Tennessee history. Situated along the picturesque Pigeon River, it was a central part of life for early settlers in the Pigeon Forge area. This grist mill ground the meals and flours needed by the locals, and it also provided electricity for the area until the 1930s.
Today The Old Mill is a greatly visited and photographed landmark. Within, there is a restaurant, a bakery featuring goods from products ground at the mill, local artists demonstrate pottery making, and there is plentiful shopping and entertainment all around you.
Bring your camera, take a stroll along the river, and enjoy your visit to Pigeon Forge!
