Doe Run Inn, Historic restaurant in Brandenburg, Kentucky
The limestone restaurant building features original hand-hewn timber beams, thick stone walls, and water-powered mill components from its 1788 construction.
Thomas Lincoln, father of President Abraham Lincoln, worked as a stonemason on the newer section of the mill building in 1800.
The structure transformed from a mill to the Sulfur Wells Hotel in 1901, attracting visitors seeking mineral water treatments in Meade County.
The restaurant resides at 500 Doe Run Hotel Road, two miles southeast of Brandenburg, along Kentucky Route 1638 near Doe Run Creek.
Room mirrors throughout the former inn section display unexplained reflections of a woman in 19th-century clothing according to multiple witnesses.
