Nassawango Iron Furnace Site, Industrial furnace site in Snow Hill, Maryland, United States.

The Nassawango Iron Furnace structure stands 35 feet tall and features a square base constructed primarily of locally sourced brick materials.

Built in 1830 by the Maryland Iron Company, this furnace produced 700 tons of iron annually from local bog ore deposits until its closure in 1849.

The furnace site represents early American industrial development and demonstrates the evolution of iron manufacturing technology in the nineteenth century.

Visitors can access the furnace site via Old Furnace Road, northwest of Snow Hill off Maryland Route 12, from April through October.

The furnace incorporates an innovative hot blast technique, making it one of the earliest examples of this technology in the United States.
