Fayette Historic State Park

Our five o'clock whistle [is] the most tedious noise ever made.Escanaba Tribune1872
The furnace complex was the heart of industrial Fayette. Here, the heat, roar and odors of the smelting operation merged with the shouts of men, whir of engines and shrill scream of steam whistles.
Nearly 230,000 tons of charcoal-iron were produced here from 1867-1890.
