Description
The Mingus Mill, located inside of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, is a gristmill that was built in 1886. The Mingus family moved to the area in the late 1700s. Historians believe that the Mingus Mill that stands today is actually the second mill built on the site due to the technology that was used to build it.
Designed and built by Sion Thomas Early, the Mingus Mill uses a water driven steel turbine to power the mill. People from all over the Oconaluftee Valley would bring their corn and wheat to be ground at the Mingus Mill. The Mingus Mill also had grindstones that were from France that provided a high quality grind that could not be found anywhere nearby.
