Take a trip down memory lane with a visit to the Historic Center at Wolcott Mill Metropark. From 1847 to 1967, the grist and feed mill operated and the barn served as stable, and later, a sales area. Today, the historic buildings and surrounding land offers you a rare glimpse of the past. Machinery in the mill is all original, left in place when it shut down in 1967. The equipment dates from all periods of operation, and many have been reconditioned to demonstrate the mill workings. The barn now acts as a museum featuring the history of American barns, an antique buggy, farming equipment and tools. A gazebo provides a focal point for events, or weddings, or a quiet place for conversation or photographs. Interpreters give tours by appointment, and conduct programs on most weekends throughout the year. For additional information, please call (586)-749-5997 or (800) 477-3175 .
