Montpelier

Montpelier has served as Vermont’s state capital in New England since 1805. Set in the narrow Winooski River valley, it is the smallest state capital in the United States by population and retains the scale of a compact regional centre. The Vermont State House, completed in 1859, is distinguished by its gold-leaf dome and occupies a central position above the river. Downtown’s independent shops, bookstores and cafés support a civic life shaped by state government, while surrounding hills and working farms place the city firmly in central Vermont.
