About Rockland, Maine
Rockland is a city of 6,936 people and the county seat of Knox County, on Penobscot Bay. In 1767 John Lermond and two of his brothers came over from Warren and set up a lumber camp to cut oak staves and pine boards, so the spot became known as Lermond's Cove. Permanent settlement followed around 1769, and when Thomaston was incorporated in 1777, the cove became one of its districts, called Shore Village.
On July 28, 1848, Shore Village broke away from Thomaston as the new town of East Thomaston. Two years later it took the name Rockland for its limestone cliffs, and in 1854 it was chartered as a city. That same year Rockland worked twelve lime quarries and 125 kilns, which made it the top lime producer in the nation. Its shipyards were busy too, sending four schooners, six brigs, three barks and eleven ships down the ways that year.
- Lime by the shiploadLime remained the backbone of the city for decades. By 1886 more than 1,000 people worked in the lime trade, and more than 300 vessels carried it to ports around the country. By then Rockland also ran grain mills, foundries, carriage factories, lumber mills, a tannery and boot and shoe factories.
- A union born in 1877Skilled stoneworkers from the region's growing granite quarries, who worked alongside the lime crews, organized the Granite Cutters' International Union in Rockland in March 1877. It ranks among the earliest craft unions in the nation.
- The Samoset by the breakwaterThe Knox and Lincoln Railroad reached Rockland in 1871 and brought summer visitors, so hotels and inns opened to house them. The grandest was the Bay Point Hotel, a luxury resort built in 1889 near the breakwater and looking out over Penobscot Bay. Renamed the Samoset in 1902, it did well until the Great Depression. As travelers switched from trains to cars, it closed in 1969, and fire destroyed it in 1972.
- Lobster every AugustThe Maine Lobster Festival takes over Rockland for five days in the first week of August. It honors lobster, the town's main export, and draws thousands of visitors from around the world.
