Greeting guests for more than 100 years, The Monadnock Inn is located in the heart of the Monadnock Region in the lovely historic village of Jaffrey Center – at the foot of Mt. Monadnock –“ the second most climbed mountain in the world”.
Set on one and a half acres of land, The Inn's lovely grounds provide room for wandering, a lively celebration, or a simple game of catch. The village features a meeting House, museum, common and several parks with glorious vistas of Mt. Monadnock.
The Inn was originally built as a residence in the 1830's. The owners began taking in summer visitors in the 1870's - as did many of the larger homes - when the Monadnock region became a wildly popular tourist destination. Many of these homes underwent serious renovations; adding rooms to accommodate the surging tide of city dwellers hungry for fresh air, and frequently changing their architectural schemes to remain competitive with the whims of style. . This photo was taken in the 1910's, when these maples were just a shadow of their present selves!
