History

Sturbridge, home of the Publick House Historic Inn, stands astride the Crossroads of New England.

U.S. Route 20 and Interstate 90 take travelers from Boston to Oregon while Interstate 84 may take them to New York and points west. It was predestined Guest arriving at the Publick to be a main House Historic Inn in the 1940s. thoroughfare. The “Old Fordway to Tantiusques,” Tantiusques, being the original name of the town, was used by the Indians when they traveled to Plymouth bringing the Pilgrims corn.

In their turn, the first white settlers traveled over the same route on their first westward journeys.

In 1633, John Oldham was traveling the ford when Indians showed him strange pieces of “black rock,” and so the first graphite mine was discovered in America. The ford was frequently mentioned in old records. Located on the Native American Bay Path, it was the only fording place for many miles to the north and south for travelers passing east and west.

It also met the famous “Woodstock Path” running from Hartford and Providence to the north. Then, as now, the junction of routes made Sturbridge strategically important.

During the Revolutionary War, Sturbridge Common, which was given by Saltonstalls “For Publick Use Forever,” was the scene of great activity. The Militia drilled on the green lawn. Stores were collected and hoarded. Colonel Ebenezer Crafts himself personally equipped and supplied a company of cavalry for George Washington’s Army.

In modern times, the 1800-acre property was home to the United States Army 366th Regiment in 1942-43 as a training center for men prior to being shipped overseas in World War II. A special ceremony marked the opening of the school as part of the First Command Tactical School. A parade was held in Sturbridge with a simulated bombing, a first aid drill and an interdiction of an invading enemy.

A training building also became an early Defense Center where civilian volunteers would watch for aircraft flying over Sturbridge and try to identify them from the Aircraft Spotters Handbook and report the same by telephone to the Air Corps. That building, split into two, can be seen today as being the two white houses located behind the Publick House along the rear exit road. This regiment left their home at Fort Devens in October 1943 to serve in combat in Italy at the Gothic Line.

In its early days, the Publick House on the Common was a favorite place for the teamsters. The Inn’s founder and keeper, Colonel Ebenezer Crafts, made frequent rounds and saw to it that each guest was satisfied and comfortable. In 1824, the tavern and the common were visited by General Lafayette and his son, George Washington Lafayette. Over 2

History 3,000 people assembled on the green to greet the Revolutionary War hero. Great preparations were made at the Publick House for Lafayette. One good lady of the town carried her best china to the Inn for the General’s use. It jogged all the way in a cart, contemporary records note, and arrived at its destination without one piece being broken. The General, however, was behind in his schedule, and the Taproom’s hospitality proved so bountiful that he ventured no further into the Inn, but presently proceeded with his journey.

Sturbridge became a cultural center, and in 1824, the first Sturbridge Fair was started for the purpose of awakening more interest in husbandry and the mechanic arts. By 1855, the Fair was incorporated as a society, and the attendance increased rapidly.

In 1834, the first ballroom ascension in this part of New England was made from the fairgrounds. The “pilot” was Madame Carlotta of New York, and the records show that her performances increased the gate by $700 over the year before.

Colonel Crafts has left his equestrian profile on our familiar sign, his legacy of majestic elms and maples shading our grounds and his spirit of uncompromising good taste and hospitality on every greeting, eating and meeting at the Publick House, and this is essentially true. We invite our guests to stop by our famous Bake Shoppe, with homemade Colonel Crafts equestrian profile welcomes you. sweets, breads and relishes to go. The sweet pecan rolls are a specialty of the Publick House.

Sturbridge itself came into being in 1730 when a drawing was made for homestead lots by such families as the Clarks, Plimptons, Hardings, Gleasons, Fiskes and others. The name Sturbridge was adopted because ancestors of the first settlers had come from Stourbridge in Worcestershire, England. Actually, permission had been given by the General Court for settlement and speculations a year earlier. Certain stipulations were made; seven years from the date, 50 families had to be settled in houses which were at least 18 feet square.

The founders were also bidden to settle a “learned orthodox minister and lay out him a house lot equal to the other house lots.”

Today that warmed our early American ancestors. Over the years, our property has grown to what it is today – a destination offering four different lodging facilities, on property spa, fitness room, bake shoppe, three outdoor wedding ceremony venues, and two fine restaurants and service from an era that has long passed by.

Our property boasts 125 guest rooms, from the Historic Main Inn, newly renovated and constructed Chamberlain House, newly constructed Tillyer House, to our Country Motor Lodge. All in a historical setting offering gracious suites, private baths, air conditioning and modern amenities.

The Publick House has been known for over 250 years for providing legendary Yankee hospitality, which will make your event memorable. While maintaining its 18th century ambiance, we provide 21st century comforts. When you come to the Publick House to feast on our generous meals and enjoy the comfort of our Yankee hospitality, you’ll be warmed by the same magnificent open hearths 3
