About Hartford

Hartford, Connecticut is a proud and historically layered city situated on the Connecticut River in the heart of Connecticut, approximately 190 kilometres northeast of New York City and 160 kilometres southwest of Boston, and serves as the state capital of Connecticut and one of the oldest cities in the United States — a city of extraordinary historical depth and surprising cultural richness whose story encompasses the birth of American democracy, the golden age of American literature, the foundations of the global insurance industry, and a civic resilience in the face of post-industrial challenge that speaks to the enduring strength of one of New England's most consequential urban communities.

Hartford's place in American literary history is secured above all by Mark Twain, who lived and wrote in the city during the most productive years of his career — The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and The Prince and the Pauper were all written in Hartford — and whose magnificent Victorian Gothic home on Farmington Avenue, the Mark Twain House and Museum, is one of the most important and beautifully preserved literary landmarks in the United States, sitting alongside the equally fascinating Harriet Beecher Stowe Center, home of the author of Uncle Tom's Cabin, in a remarkable concentration of nineteenth-century American literary heritage.

Hartford is also the insurance capital of the world — a distinction it has held since the early nineteenth century when the city's insurers pioneered the modern insurance industry following the Great New York Fire of 1835 — and the gleaming towers of Aetna, The Hartford, and Travelers that define the city's skyline are a testament to an industry that has shaped Hartford's economy, architecture, and civic culture for two centuries, with the Travelers Tower remaining one of the most recognizable landmarks on the Connecticut River valley skyline.

Top attractions include the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art — the oldest continuously operating public art museum in the United States, founded in 1842, with a magnificent collection spanning five thousand years — the stunning Connecticut State Capitol building with its distinctive Victorian Gothic architecture and gilded dome, the Connecticut Science Center on the revitalized riverfront, Bushnell Park at the heart of the city, and the outstanding Hartford Stage theatre company.

With its extraordinary literary heritage, pioneering insurance legacy, oldest public art museum in the nation, beautiful State Capitol, and a deep and layered New England history that rewards every curious visitor, Hartford is a Connecticut capital of genuine and often underappreciated American distinction.

Its airport code is BDL (Bradley International Airport, serving the greater Hartford-Springfield region).
