Morrisville History & Art Walk
This mural of downtown Morrisville was created by local artist Rick Loya and is located along the rail trail near the Morrisville Depot.
Morrisville was settled in 1796 along the winding Lamoille River and nestled between the Green and Worcester Mountain Ranges. We invite you to take a walk up Portland Street and along Main Street, following the green line painted on the sidewalk for a round trip of under a mile. The route will lead you to plaques that tell the stories of the people, buildings, Civil War relics, and public art in Morrisville’s nationally-recognized historic district.
On your walk, you will also discover businesses such as a bike shop, a flower shop, a clothing store, and a food co-op, that help keep Morrisville as vibrant as its history. A trip downtown is not complete without visiting Morisville’s mini restaurant row, which includes a fabulous sandwich shop, a pizzeria that Seven Days proclaimed to have the best pizza in Vermont, and places to satisfy your sweet tooth. If you find yourself wanting more local history after filling up, Morrisville’s museum, the Noyes House, is just steps away at the bottom of Lower Main Street.
We are positive that you will enjoy downtown Morrisville and its history by walking the green line. Enjoy!
“There is some really rich and wonderful history in Morrisville that most people don’t know about.”
