Litchfield County, located in the northwestern corner of the great state of Connecticut, was established on October 9, 1751, and named after Litchfield, England. It is bordered by Massachusetts to the north, New York to the west, and Fairfield County to the south. Litchfield County's land area spans over 920 square miles, making it the largest county in Connecticut by land area.

During the 18th and 19th centuries, Litchfield County played an essential role in the development of the United States. The town of Litchfield, the county seat, was a hotbed of revolutionary activity during the American Revolutionary War, and many of its citizens served as soldiers or financed the war effort. The county also played a role in the American Civil War, with residents participating in the battles and providing supplies to the soldiers.

In the 19th century, Litchfield County became known for its ironworks industry, which contributed to the growth of the region. Many towns, such as Cornwall, Kent, and Salisbury, prospered due to their iron mines and furnaces. The iron produced in Litchfield County helped to serve various industries, such as transportation, agriculture, and construction.

Litchfield County is home to picturesque rolling hills, stunning landscapes, and an abundance of outdoor recreational activities. The Appalachian Trail runs through the northern part of the county, and various state parks, such as Kent Falls State Park and Mount Tom State Park, offer hiking, fishing, and camping opportunities.

Fun fact: Litchfield County's Sharon is home to the Edward A. King Museum, which houses an impressive collection of artifacts related to early American clock manufacturing. This is due to the region's rich history in the clock and watchmaking industry during the 18th and 19th centuries.
