Indiana - Mitchell


Rushing water from Hamer Cave

 
In 1927 the State of Indiana entered into agreement with the Lehigh Portland Cement Corporation to transfer the mill property at Hamer Cave near Mitchell, Indiana to the state. The Corporation would retain the water rights. The beginnings of the Spring Mill State Mill Park started in 1927. The restoration of the village with the mill began in 1928. The foundations of 50 structures were found at the village site.
