Stockbridge, a lovely village located in the Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts, is peacefully situated in a beautiful interval between the mountains and the Housatonic River. The town has grown from an Indian mission to a quiet village with the most famous Main Street in America as painted by Norman Rockwell. It never changes. The Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge houses the world's largest collection of his Saturday Evening Post covers. Today, in the face of rapid change and development, people look nostalgically to a way of life that is rapidly disappearing and that's what's so great about Stockbridge. Still, there's plenty to do and see in and around Stockbridge.
