Description
The Old Mill in Pigeon Forge dates back to the early 19th century and is one of the oldest operating grist mills in the country. It has a rich history and is an important part of East Tennessee's heritage. The Old Mill was built by businessman Isaac Love in 1830. Love is an essential figure in the history of Pigeon Forge. He built the iron forge which gave the city its name in 1817 on the same industrial complex where he built the mill just 13 years later.
Love sold the mill to John Sevier Trotter in 1849 and from there its purpose changed. Trotter was a Union supporter and during The Civil War the Old Mill powered looms used to make cloth used by the U.S. military. After the war, Trotter used the waterwheel to power a sawmill on site. Today the old mill has been repurposed into a restaurant and gift shop.
Today the old mill is considered one of must visit sites in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
