Big Mill Antiques

About Us

Welcome to Big Mill Antiques, a beloved antique destination nestled in the heart of Fort Payne, Alabama. Since opening our doors in 2011, we’ve been proud to offer a true pickers’ paradise inside the historic, 134-year-old Big Mill Company building—a landmark listed on the historic registry and featured on the Antique Trail.

Founded by Stephen and Lynn Brewer, Big Mill Antiques was born out of a deep love for antiques and a passion for resurrecting the past. With two expansive stories filled with unique, hard-to-find treasures from many eras, our antique mall invites visitors to explore a rich tapestry of history and craftsmanship. From vintage furniture, tools, and home décor to gifts, toys, jewelry, and trinkets, our selection is as diverse as it is timeless.

We’re honored to serve and partner with communities across Dekalb, Jackson, and Madison counties, offering a warm and welcoming space where everyone can find something that speaks to them.
