  Welcome!

The Belchertown Historical Association was founded during March 1903, “for the preservation and exhibition of articles of historic interest on account of age or association with the past history of the town.”  The Stone House became the BHA's showcase in 1922.  We invite you to tour this website, and take a virtual tour as well, to learn about the great things we are doing.  Revisit regularly for news updates and please join with us as we continue to pursue the Association's original mission in collecting and preserving the history of Belchertown.

Bits of History


The fifty stories in this charming collection mark the events, places and people that have made Belchertown special. Drawn from the writings of beloved local fixtures Doris and Harvey Dickinson, these tales show how Belchertown holds firm to its New England Yankee traditions in the heart of the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusett
