Presentazione generale
Manchester and Bennington
Revolutionary history, homes and mountains in the southwest of Vermont.
To understand what Manchester and Bennington are, you have to look at Bennington Battle Monument, Hildene and Mount Equinox. These places give us a view of a territory marked by heritage, mountain reliefs and the countryside and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: changing weather in altitude. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Place indismissible
Bennington Battle Monument
The Bennington Battle Monument brings the memory of the battle to a striking verticality that dominates Bennington's public space. As the structure approaches, it gives a materialised reading of a founding moment without unnecessary discourse. The experience is mainly geometric: presence of stone, scale and location.
Place indismissible
Hildene
Hildene, Robert Todd Lincoln's former summer residence, reveals the Vermont of the large late-season homes with a garden and a very built residential outlook. The site tells of how an influential family occupied and shaped the Manchester Center landscape. The volumes, more than a program, build history.
Nature and landscape
Mount Equinox
Mount Equinox stands above Manchester in the Taconics chain, with a more frank relief than many nearby hills. The panoramic road leads to wide views of the valleys, the Green Mountains and the undulations of southern Vermont. The experience is more like an altitude viewpoint than a demanding hike.
