Wildrose Kilns

The Wildrose Charcoal Kilns in Death Valley were built in 1876 to produce charcoal for silver ore smelting in the nearby processing plant. These 30-foot-high, 25-foot-wide kilns are among the best-preserved examples of their kind in the U.S. Charcoal was made by stacking wood inside, which was then burned. The kilns are a significant historical site in Death Valley, reflecting the mining activities of the late 19th century.
