Brattleboro sits on the west bank of the Connecticut River in Windham County, directly across from Hinsdale, New Hampshire. With roughly 12,000 residents it is the largest municipality in southern Vermont and the first major town drivers encounter on Interstate 91 after crossing from Massachusetts. The downtown grid climbs up from the river along Main Street and centers on the Brooks House, an 1871 brick building that was rebuilt after a 2011 fire and remains the visual anchor of the commercial district.
The Brattleboro Retreat, founded in 1834 as the Vermont Asylum for the Insane, is one of the oldest operating psychiatric hospitals in the United States. The campus covers more than a thousand acres on the north side of town and continues to function as an inpatient mental health facility. The institution shaped the character of the town for more than a century and remains a significant employer.
Rudyard Kipling lived just north of Brattleboro in Dummerston from 1892 to 1896, during which he wrote The Jungle Book and other works. His house, called Naulakha, is preserved by the Landmark Trust USA and available as a vacation rental. The Estey Organ Museum in the former factory district preserves the legacy of the Estey Organ Company, which at its peak in the late 1800s was the largest manufacturer of reed organs in the world.
