Mission House
Stockbridge has been shaped by its rich history... from its origin as an Indian mission town,
to its heyday as a summer home for the wealthy families of the Gilded Age, to its current
small-town ambience captured so endearingly by Norman Rockwell.
Stockbridge:
A WALKING TOUR
We have mapped out a route that samples our
history, culture, vistas, and leisurely shopping.
Start at the town’s crossroads, Main and South
Street (Rte. 7). The famed Red Lion Inn, originally
founded as the Inn at the Sign of the Red Lion
in 1773 (along with the sign of King George III),
graces the corner. Its famous front porch beckons
visitors to sit, sip, and people watch. Set in the
triangular park at the center of the crossroads is
one of Stockbridge’s public landmarks, the 1862
Cat and Dog Fountain.
A right turn from the crossroads leads you
past many historic buildings. Norman Rockwell
captured the interior of the 1884 House, the original Stockbridge Town Offices, in “The Marriage
License.” Be sure to explore the Mews, a Main
Street cul-de-sac of shops, and its neighboring
byway that marks the spot of the original Alice’s
Restaurant of Arlo Guthrie fame.
At the corner of Main and Elm stands the
Stockbridge Library. One of the oldest libraries in
2

(See map.)
Western Massachusetts, the original structure,
now the left wing, was built in 1864. The library
houses the Historical Room, a museum and
research center containing the original Hitty doll
and artifacts from the town’s earliest inhabitants,
the Mahican Indians.
The 1881 Watering Trough stands at the corner
of Main and Elm. It features the homilies “Utility
is preferable to grandeur” and “Merciful man is
kind to his beast.” As you walk down Elm Street,
you’ll notice the 1862 red and white firehouse
known as Hose House No.1 that Rockwell pictured in his work “The New American LaFrance is
here!” The impressive 1862 St. Joseph’s Church
is at the left corner.
Turn the corner onto Maple Street, take a right
onto South Street, passing Country Curtains at The
Red Lion Inn, and cross Main. You will be on Pine
Street at the site of the 1866 Soldiers Monument.
At that corner, the 1884 St. Paul’s Episcopal Church
features a chancel window by LaFarge, baptistery
by Louis St. Gaudens, and nave window by Tiffany.
Go west on Main Street, toward the beautiful
“Cottages” built by wealthy industrialists as summer mansions during the opulent Gilded Age.
The corner of Main and Sergeant Street presents you with The Mission House museum, built
in 1739 (the year Stockbridge was incorporated)
by Rev. John Sergeant, the first missionary to
the Mahican Indians. Originally located on Eden
Hill, the Mission House was moved to its Main
Street site in the 1920s, restored, furnished
with authentic period pieces, and opened as a
museum in 1930. Continuing West on Main you
will discover the historic Stockbridge Cemetery
with its Sedgwick Pie, the ancestral plot of one of
Stockbridge’s oldest families.
Cross Main Street to the 19th century Village

Where to Stay
Located in Downtown Great Barrington
When Norman Rockwell described Stockbridge
as “the Best of America, the Best of New
England,” he may have been influenced by the
town’s architectural landscape, as well as its
tradition of extending hospitality to visitors.

IF ONLY THESE CHAIRS COULD TALK.
They’d have a lot of stories to share about life at The Red Lion Inn. From their
unique vantage point, these rockers could reminisce about tradition … the celebrations
… the intimate moments … even just sitting on the Front Porch watching the world
go by. Yes. These chairs could say a lot. But sadly chairs can’t talk. And considering
everything they’ve seen and heard, maybe that’s a good thing.

THIS QUAINT NEW ENGLAND TOWN BRIMS WITH
HISTORY • CELEBRITY • ROMANCE • INTRIGUE
Every Stockbridge season is stamped with it’s own beauty and charm; the green and flower-filled lushness of spring
and summer; a fall foliage palette without rival; the winter look of an old-fashioned Christmas card. Take a deep
breath, inhale the Berkshire mountain air, and slow your pace to match the town’s character
while strolling our streets, pathways, and gardens.
