This site is the former Fairfield State Hospital (also known as Fairfield Hills State Hospital or Fairfield Hills). It was a psychiatric hospital in Newtown, Connecticut, which operated from 1931 until 1995. At its peak the hospital housed over 4,000 patients. The entire facility was owned and operated by the State of Connecticut Department of Mental Health. The facility is just southeast of the center of Newtown.
