Hunterdon County · Flemington Borough
Visiting Flemington
Historic architecture, destination dining, arts, heritage rail excursions, antiques and a newly restored downtown hotel make Flemington an easy Hunterdon day trip or weekend base.
Main Street, Courthouse Square, Stangl Road, Samuel Fleming House and many restaurants are close enough to combine on foot once you are parked downtown.

Parking & Visitor Tips
- Use posted municipal parking rules and current downtown parking maps; regulations vary by street and lot.
- Historic homes and many architecturally important properties are private—enjoy them from public sidewalks unless visitor access is offered.
- Heritage railroad schedules and museum hours are event-based and should be checked before making a special trip.
- Do not assume every attraction with a Flemington postal address lies inside the borough.
