Graue Mill
Graue Mill played a crucial role during the Civil War, as it served as a stop on the Underground Railroad and provided food and shelter for escaped slaves seeking freedom. Its owners, the Graue family, were abolitionists and risked their safety and property to aid in the fight against slavery. Today, visitors can tour the mill and learn about its role in the Underground Railroad, as well as its significance in the development of the local community.
In addition to its historical importance, Graue Mill also offers a picturesque setting for outdoor activities. The mill is surrounded by a scenic forest preserve, complete with hiking trails, picnic areas, and a nature center. Visitors can also witness the functioning waterwheel and explore the working mill, which continues to produce cornmeal, buckwheat flour, and other grains. With its rich history and beautiful surroundings, Graue Mill is a must-see destination for tourists and visitors of all ages.
