    Hancock Shaker Village

    A widely acclaimed destination named The City of Peace by its residents, this Shaker community disbanded in 1960 and sold the buildings and over 900 acres to a group that formed a nonprofit preservation organization. This Shaker site is in remarkable shape, and features a unique round stone barn. It now encompasses about 1,200 acres and 20 restored buildings. While the village is based in Hancock, and that town gives the Village its name, a substantial part of the Village is in Pittsfield.
