Living in Stanstead
The city of Stanstead was created in 1995 through the merger of Stanstead Plain, Rock Island and Beebe Plain, three former towns right on the Vermont border. The granite industry was long the main economic driver of the area. Its built heritage and institutions, such as Stanstead College and the Musée Colby-Curtis, bear witness to a long history on both sides of the border. Families, retirees and residents attached to the city's bilingual character live here.

Our favourite spot in Stanstead
Haskell Library and Opera House
Heritage
Opened in 1904, it was deliberately built on the Canada–U.S. border: in the opera house, a good part of the audience sits in the United States facing a stage located in Canada. It is a one-of-a-kind place worth seeing at least once.
