Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Piedmont Charcoal Kilns State Historic Site is located on the outskirts of Piedmont, Wyoming, one of the state’s ghost towns. The Union Pacific Railroad once passes through the town of Piedmont, carrying the majority of the charcoal made by the kilns to the state of Utah. The Piedmont Charcoal Kilns State Historic Site today contains three and a half charcoal kilns, two picnic tables, and four interpretive signs. Only three of Piedmont’s original forty kilns still remain at the site. The kilns were built by Moses Byrne back in 1869 in order to supply charcoal to Utah’s iron smelting industry.
