Grist Mill & Cinnamon Bread

Built in 1982, the Dollywood Grist Mill was the first fully operational grist mill built in the state of Tennessee in more than 100 years. Workers constructed it exactly as it would have been more than a century ago when folks in the Smoky Mountains relied on the giant water wheel to grind corn and wheat.

Today, the Grist Mill is home to our world-famous cinnamon bread, which is freshly made daily before your very eyes. Try this famous snack with buttercream icing or Dollywood's own apple butter. In addition, you'll find an assortment of cookies and drinks.
