Dating from about 1805, it became a center for lumber and furniture industries. Indeed, Gardner was known as the "Chair City" and "The Furniture Capital of New England" due to its long history in furniture production. By 1910, it had 20 chair factories which produced 4 million chairs per year. It was also noted for silvermithing. The Gardner State Colony for the Insane pioneered the use of cottage residences. Gardner was incorporated as a city in 1923. It became a filming location for the 1992 movie, School Ties.
