Catamount Tavern Site
Landmark
The site of Stephen Fay's Catamount Tavern, the primary meeting place of the Green Mountain Boys from the early 1770s through the Revolution. A mounted catamount (mountain lion) displayed over the door gave the tavern its name and became a symbol of Vermont defiance. The original structure is gone; a historical marker and the Bennington Museum collection preserve its memory.
