Moscow, Vermont is an unincorporated village in the town of Stowe in Lamoille County.
The village of Moscow is said to be so named because of a large circular saw blade hung in 1839, struck with a hammer to call men to work (alternately to call a school meeting). The sound was likened to the Great Bell of Moscow, the largest in the world, then in the news as having only recently been unearthed after lying buried for more than a hundred years (the 220 ton mammoth had fallen to the ground while being hung in 1734).
