Griffith Ranch, Movie ranch and agricultural structure in San Fernando, United States.
The Griffith Ranch spans across multiple acres featuring both agricultural facilities and film production areas at the north end of San Fernando Valley.
David Wark Griffith purchased this property in 1912, establishing it as both a working agricultural site and a motion picture production facility.
The California Historical Landmark designation in 1959 recognizes the ranch's dual role in early American cinema and agricultural development.
Located near Interstate 210 and California State Route 118 freeways, visitors can find the commemorative plaque at Foothill Boulevard and Vaughn Street.
During World War II, the ranch transformed into a prisoner of war camp where 300 German detainees worked in its agricultural fields.
