Biddeford Mills Museum

I’ve been wanting to go on one of the mill tours for a long time and it was better than I expected. I live and work in Biddeford and went with a group of other people, including a few who actually worked in the mills back in the day. It was described as a two hour tour & it ran for about two and a half hours. This was a good thing because the tour wasn’t rushed and everyone’s questions were answered.
The mills are being renovated and rebuilt at an astonishing pace so if you want to go, do it within the next few years. The price was $ 10 for adults, $ 8 for seniors, and $ 5 for students, and it was well worth it. I posted a few pictures and there’s MUCH more to see.
Quick update (10÷19÷13): The mill tours are done for the season. Most of the tour takes place on unheated spaces and it’s getting cold. If you’re interested in checking this out, bookmark it and do it in Spring 2014 when they start up again. You don’t want to miss this and the mills are being filled at an amazing rate so it won’t look like this for much longer.
Quick update (7÷29÷14): They’re not doing mill tours this year. I’m not sure why but there’s a lot of construction. Hopefully they’ll start the tours again soon.
