Bulow Plantation - Sugar Mill Ruins Point Cloud3D Model
In 1821, Major Charles Wilhelm Bulow acquired over 4,500 acres in Northeast Florida in what is today southern Flagler County. On this land, he built a large plantation, Bulowville, where sugar cane, cotton, rice, and indigo were grown and processed, all dependant upon the labor of almost 200 enslaved individuals. Soon after the plantation was established, Charles Bulow died and left the property to his son John Bulow. John operated the property until US troops ceased the property during the Seminole War. In 1836, the Seminole burned the plantation in 1836 as well as other plantations in the area, and the site was abandoned. Today, the remains of the coquina sugar mill still stand at the site.
This project was sponsered in part by the Department of State, Disivion of Historic Resources, and the State of Florida.
