We have mapped out a route that samples our history, culture, vistas, and leisurely shop-ping. 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 Rock-well 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 librar-

ies in Western Massachusetts, the original structure, now the left wing, was built in 1864. The library houses the Historical Room, a mu-seum and research center containing the origi-nal Hitty doll and artifacts from the town’s earliest inhabitants, the Mahican Indians.

The 1881 Watering Trough stands at the cor-ner of Main and Elm. It features the homilies “Utility is preferable to grandeur” and “Merci-ful 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 Cur-tains 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 beauti-ful “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 dis-cover 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 Vil-lage Green, site of the 1824 Congregational Church, with membership dating back to 1739; additional war memorials, and the Chil-dren’s Chime Tower, dedicated in 1878 and rung at 5:30 every evening from “apple blos-

STOCKBRIDGE: A WALKING TOUR See map, center spread.

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.

som time until frost” in accordance with the donor’s wishes. The historic Greek Revival building is the Historic Town Hall currently vacant. Farther west on Main Street, past the Congregational Church is the Indian burial ground monument, with its obelisk of stone hewn from the nearby Ice Glen.

The following special sites are best reached by car, although the hearty may wish to walk or bicycle.

SOUTH A few blocks south of Main discover the Ice Glen, a natural wonder ideal for hik-ing. Take Rte.7 South; turn left onto Park Street and park at the end of the street. A footbridge over the Housatonic River will lead you to three trails. The Mary Flynn trail is a paved walk along the river that is handi-capped accessible. Or cross the railroad track. In a quarter of a mile, the right fork will lead you into the Ice Glen complete with glacial boulders and ice crystals even in July. The left fork will take you to Laura’s Tower. Climb the tower for views of Mt. Everett, the Catskills, and the Green Mountains.

EAST Traveling east from The Red Lion Inn, you’ll come to the Town offices, Police station and Stockbridge Chamber of Commerce. It also houses public restrooms. Across the street and a little farther to the East, you will find the Berkshire Theatre Festival, one of the oldest, most prestigious theaters in the country. The BTF building, designed by Stanford White in 1888 as the Stockbridge

Casino, presents works featuring noted actors, directors, designers and playwrights.

NORTH At the Stockbridge crossroads, go north on Pine Street; The Marian Fathers’ property, Eden Hill, is at the top of the hill. It’s the home of the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy, the Association of Marian Helpers, and the John Paul II Institute of Divine Mercy. Veer left from Pine Street up Prospect Hill for a glimpse of grand “cot-tages” and farmsteads. Naumkeag, designed by Stanford White, is one of a few Berkshire Cottages open to the public. Built in 1885 for Joseph Choate, a prominent New York attorney and ambassador to Great Britain, the home, furnishings, and lush gardens draw the visitor into the Gilded Age. The Trustees of Reservations, established in 1891 as the country’s first independent organization for the preservation of landscape and historic sites, oversee Naumkeag, the Mission House, and Monument Mountain.

As you continue to climb up Prospect Hill, you pass Hawthorne Cottage (The Little Red House), home of Nathaniel Hawthorne from 1850–51. Here he collected material for Tanglewood Tales and The Wonder Book, wrote The House of Seven Gables, and crafted names that were later used by two fa-mous sites — Shadowbrook, the largest of the Berkshire Cottages (now the site of Kripalu), and Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

WEST Travel west from the town of Stock-bridge, turn right at the cemetery, follow Rte. 102 (Church St.) to the Berkshire Botanical Garden. Fifteen acres of landscaped gardens, woodland walks, and picnicking offer visitors information and inspiration. At this intersec-tion (Rte. 183 & 102), go north on Rte. 183 one mile to IS183, Art School of the Berkshires, a nonprofit community arts center housed in historic Citizen’s Hall, an 1872 High Empire Victorian building.

As you travel back south on Rte. 183, signs will direct you to the Norman Rockwell Mu-seum. Home to the world’s largest collection of original Rockwell paintings, the museum includes the painter’s studio, the Linwood Cottage, picnic areas, outdoor sculpture by Rockwell’s son Peter, and the Norman Rock-well Museum Store. The museum features permanent and changing exhibitions, classes and programs, and a reference library.

Continue south onto Rte. 183 and follow the signs to Chesterwood, the summer estate of sculptor Daniel Chester French (1850-1931). The Colonial Revival residence and studio house nearly 500 pieces of sculpture — one of the largest collections of fine art devoted to a single American sculptor and period. French is best known for creating two of our nation’s most powerful symbols: The Minute Man (1875), and Abraham Lincoln (1922) for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC.

The spectacular Berkshire countryside that provides a backdrop for the cultural showcase is itself a destination, with numerous trails and back roads for hiking, cycling, bird watching, cross country skiing and showshoeing. Guided tours and local train rides are offered during the summer season.
