Honoring a Historic Milestone
It has been incredibly rewarding to see guests not only take an interest in our history, but actively seek opportunities to experience it in meaningful and tangible ways. Whether exploring our archives, attending historical programming, engaging in conversations on our iconic Front Porch, or simply pausing to appreciate the generations of stories and memories that live within these walls, we are reminded now more than ever that history is not only something to be remembered, but something to be experienced, shared, and carried forward together.

The Fitz Gallery: The Red Lion Inn: Three Years Older Than America
The Fitz Gallery, located on the second floor of the Inn, is a wonderous haven for artists. With the freedom to paint the walls any color of their choosing to access to our guest rooms for residencies, the artists we invite are given the space to dream, design, create, and explore their artistic visions without limitation.
We welcome a new exhibit: The Red Lion Inn: Three Years Older Than America, a special showcase featuring 250 years of treasured archives, historic artifacts, photographs, memorabilia, and stories from The Red Lion Inn’s remarkable history.
