Keefe-Mumbower Mill, also known as Evans-Mumbower Mill, is a historic grist mill located on Wissahickon Creek in Upper Gwynedd Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. It was built 1835, and is a 3 1/2-story, banked stucco over stone building with a two-story, wood frame reproduction addition. It was in use as a mill until 1930. It housed an Oliver Evans milling system.[2]

The Evans-Mumbower Mill is now owned by the Wissahickon Valley Watershed Association. The mill is open for public tours and demonstrations once a month.

The mill was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[1]
