Vermont Granite Museum of Barre
Sobre Nós
The Vermont Granite Museum of Barre is housed in a 300-foot
long, 130 year old granite cutting shed. The long structure was built by the
Jones Brothers Company as the first of its kind for the granite industry and
was part of a large complex of buildings owned by the largest granite
manufacturer in America. Along the Stevens Branch of the Winooski River, the Museum
owns approximately 12 acres of land, consisting of the archaeological remains
of the Jones Brothers Company complex and another granite company. The Museum
contains exhibits about the hand tools, machines, processes, products,
companies, people, and important events that define the heritage of Vermont’s
granite industry.
