Stockbridge Main Street & Red Lion Inn
Stockbridge Main Street
The main street of the New England town depicted in Rockwell's paintings. The Red Lion Inn, open since 1773, remains a landmark.
Stockbridge's main street preserves shopfronts, churches and inns in Colonial and Victorian styles. Norman Rockwell painted 'Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas' here. The Red Lion Inn's porch is lined with rocking chairs, and its lobby displays antique porcelain and Rockwell works. You can go in for a drink or a meal. Nearby are the Mission House, bookshops and an ice cream shop. You can stroll the street at any time of day for free. In December, Christmas events recreate the scenes from the painting. It is about 10 km from Lenox.
