SLOSS BLAST FURNACE SITE

BIRMINGHAM, AL

The Sloss Blast Furnace Site in Birmingham, Alabama is a historic landmark of great importance to the city. The site is made up of two large blast furnaces and other structures, all of which are registered on the National Register of Historic Places. The furnaces were built in the late 1800s and were used to produce pig iron and steel. The furnaces were in operation until the early 1970s, when they were deactivated due to changing economic conditions.
