The Grist Mill is one of Dollywood’s most iconic and beloved destinations. Built as the park’s first fully operational grist mill, it offers a nostalgic glimpse into Appalachian craftsmanship. Inside, guests can watch as bakers knead, roll, and prepare fresh cinnamon bread—a park tradition famous nationwide. Warm, gooey, and served with butter or icing, the cinnamon bread is considered a must-have treat and often the highlight of a Dollywood visit.
