Hallowell, Maine
Population: 2,467
Located in Kennebec County
Years ago, this smallest city in Maine was known for fine granite destined to become statues, buildings and monuments across the nation. The logging industry thrived here on the shore of the Kennebec River, which also yielded the only ice acceptable for an authentic mint julep at the Kentucky Derby.
Once a meeting place for generals and governors, shipbuilders and granite cutters, writers and painters, farmers and laborers, heroes and scoundrels... historic Hallowell still abounds with opportunities to enjoy fascinating local history and culture, delightful dining, unique shopping and recreation, first-rate professional services and most of all, friendly people you’ll be glad you met.
Any time of the year is a great time to be here... from midsummer’s Old Hallowell Day celebration to traditional New England Christmas festivities... whether you’re here for the glorious fall foliage, cross-country skiing, a spring walk in the woods, an outing by boat or bicycle, or simply a stroll through the neighborhood. Breathe in the history, the atmosphere, and the fresh Maine air. It also boasts the oldest on-going community theater comprised of the most diverse energetic talent you will find anywhere. This is a well rounded artistic community. There’s no place like it!
