HISTORIQUE: Ce charmant village fût établi en 1802 par des loyalistes qui, fidèles à la couronne britannique, avaient quitté les états de la Nouvelle-Angleterre pendant la guerre de l'indépendance. Connu d'abord sous le nom de Coldbrook, du nom de la rivière qui le traverse, Knowlton est vite devenu un village prospère. En 1855, il devient le "Chef-Lieu" du comté et l'honorable Paul Holland Knowlton, son premier gouverneur.
