A 160-foot (48-m) double-span suspension truss bridge, built in 1852 and moved to this site in 1882. It is one of the oldest standing iron railroad bridges in the United States.
The Bollman Truss Railroad Bridge across the Little Patuxent River at Savage, Maryland, is one of the oldest standing iron railroad bridges in the United States and the sole surviving example of a revolutionary design in the history of American bridge engineering. The 160-foot (48.8 m) double-span was built in 1852 at an unknown location on the main line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. It was moved 35 years later to its present location, where it replaced the very first Bollman bridge. Today, it carries the Savage Mill Trail.

A Richardsonian Romanesque-style building built 1921–1922 in honor of the life of Carroll Baldwin, Savage Mill's well-known supervisor who died in 1918. It is a two-story structure with stone from the nearby Little Patuxent River on the exterior. The building was built for the use of the entire community, and it continues to function as a community center today.

A 4.6-mile (7.5-km) mostly paved trail that follows the Patuxent River from Savage Park to Lake Elkhorn. The trail has interpretive signs and crosses the historic Guilford Pratt Truss Bridge. Good for walking or biking.
An original 2½-story brick house built around 1760 with two additions built in 1941 and 1946. The original part of the building has three bays on each facade, a hip roof, and a central chimney. Although it was probably built by the Ridgely family, its more famous resident was Commodore Joshua Barney. Commodore Barney led forces in the Revolutionary War, was captured three times, and escaped twice. Commodore Barney also led forces in the Battle of Bladensburg during the War of 1812.
