Wasps are present throughout the mill, and the interior of the mill is not heated or cooled. Visitors should dress appropriately for the weather. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

There may be times when tours are unavailable due to low staffing levels, extreme temperatures, flooding or construction. For the most up-to-date information, please visit our Park and Site Status Map.

Travel back to simpler days when business in Missouri was about the rushing of a stream over a dam and bridges were covered. Visitors to Bollinger Mill State Historic Site can learn how wheat and corn were ground into flour and meal in the massive four-story mill that dates to the Civil War era. Or they can stroll through Burfordville Covered Bridge, one of just four covered bridges that remain in Missouri. The site’s rustic setting offers ample picnicking and exploration opportunities along the Whitewater River. Both structures are in the National Register of Historic Places.
