The Tallassee Mills were cotton mills established by the Tallassee Falls Manufacturing Company in 1841 in Tallassee, Alabama at the falls of the Tallapoosa River. At the time of their closing in 2005, the Tallassee mills were the oldest continuously-operating textile mills in the United States.[2]
The mills were placed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 26, 2010.[1]
