Meek's Flour Mill

Meek's Flour Mill is a historic site in Bonaparte, Iowa, originally established in 1837 and rebuilt in 1878 after a fire destroyed the original mill. This three-story structure, built from ashlar limestone, played a significant role in the town's development and was operated by various millers until 1905. After years of vacancy, it served as a feed store and later a restaurant. The mill is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is part of the Bonaparte Historic Riverfront District, making it an interesting stop for tourists and researchers interested in local history and architecture.
