Pittsburg, Incorporated town in Coös County, New Hampshire, United States
Pittsburg is the northernmost town in New Hampshire and covers a large area of forested land with several lakes. The region sits at an elevation around 400 meters and features dense woodlands and waterways that define its landscape.
The area operated as an independent republic between 1832 and 1835 due to border disputes between the United States and Canada. This period ended when boundaries were settled through diplomatic negotiations.
The Indian Stream Schoolhouse from 1897 and the town hall from 1883 stand as preserved structures representing early New Hampshire architecture.
U.S. Route 3 runs through the town and connects it with neighboring states and Canadian provinces. This road serves as the main transportation link for visitors exploring the northern regions.
The Connecticut Lakes within the town mark the starting point of the Connecticut River, which flows through four additional states. These lakes form the source of one of the region's longest rivers.
