Referred to by the area’s Mahican Indians as W-nahk-ta-kook, meaning the great
meadow, Stockbridge was incorporated as a city in 1739. Located within The
Berkshires, this center is commonly recognized for long-time resident Norman
Rockwell. In fact, Main Street is immortalized in Rockwell’s famous painting titled
Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas. As part of the city’s Christmas holiday
celebrations, Main Street is transformed to re-create the setting that inspired
this painting. Exhibiting the unique history and residents of Stockbridge are
the Chesterwood
Estate and Museum, the Merwin
House and The
Norman Rockwell Museum at Stockbridge. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy perusing
the gardens at the Berkshire
Botanical Garden, cross-country skiing at the Notchview
Reservation and exploring the walking trails at Bartholomew’s
Cobble. Every summer Stockbridge comes alive during the Berkshire
Theatre Festival, a three-month celebration of American performing arts.
