New Smyrna Sugar Mill Ruins, Industrial ruins in New Smyrna Beach, United States
The New Smyrna Sugar Mill Ruins consist of stone walls and structural elements spread across 17 acres, showcasing the remains of a 19th-century sugar processing facility.
Built in 1830 for merchants Henry Cruger and William DePeyster, the sugar mill met its end during a Native American raid on December 25, 1835.
The site represents early American industrial development and agricultural practices, demonstrating the economic relationships between plantation owners, workers, and Native Americans.
Located at 600 Mission Drive, the ruins welcome visitors every day from sunrise to sunset without admission fees, with staff available at 386-736-5953.
The mill structures were built using coquina, a local sedimentary rock formed from fossilized mollusc shells that provided natural cement-like properties.
