Yulee Sugar Mill
Ruins



A concrete path and interpretive
plagues lead visitors through one
of Florida's most significant
historical sites.

View the solid remains of a sugar
mill  that once employed more
 than 1000 workers.  Hewn from
 native limestone, the mill was
 part of a thriving 5100 acre
 sugar plantation owned by
 David Yulee. Florida's first
 U.S. Senator, Yulee built
the first cross-state rail-
road, completed in 1860.

The mill operated from 1845
until then end of the civil
war, providing sugar to
the southern troops.
