About Ludwig
Ludwig is a ghost town in Lyon County, Nevada, with a history rooted in gypsum mining. Unlike many ghost towns whose industrial activity faded permanently, Ludwig saw a revival when gypsum mining at the site resumed in 2013, meaning the area carries both historic and active industrial character.
Visitors drawn to ghost town exploration should be aware that active mining operations can restrict access and alter the landscape. As always with sites of this type, verify current access conditions before heading out.
