THE SETTING

Constructed around the turn of the last century, the building that is now the Union Mills Public House was once home to a thriving textile and knitting factory. For more than 125 years, the Union Knitting Mills Building figured prominently in America’s industrial history and served as one of the largest employers in Frederick.

The Union Mills Kitting Factory stood vacant for many years, but interest in the historic property was finally renewed when

Downtown Frederick’s beautiful and picturesque Carroll Creek Linear Park was built mere feet from its exterior. During the historic building’s meticulous renovation, restauranteurs Mary Custer and Niko Negas were inspired to repurpose the former factory into an unforgettable wedding venue where one-of-a-kind moments could be celebrated and lifelong memories made.
