Klots Throwing Company Mill
Klots Throwing Company Mill, Former silk mill in Cumberland, Maryland, US.
The two-story brick building features double-gable roofs and paired stepped parapets, stretching across 2.4 acres of industrial property.
Built between 1902 and 1903, the mill operated under Gentex Corporation until 1972 and received National Register of Historic Places status in 2010.
The mill represents early 20th-century industrial architecture designed by Lansing C. Holden and mirrors the textile manufacturing heritage of Maryland.
The north section of the building served as the Western Maryland Food Bank from 1988 to 2002, demonstrating its adaptability for community purposes.
The mill stands as an example of the Klots Throwing Company's legacy, which employed 6,000 people across fourteen mills during its peak operations.
