House Tours of Historic Flemington
June 21 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm
After another extremely successful House Tour last year with over 600 attendees, it is with great pleasure that we announce the Flemington Historic Preservation Commission is hosting another “House Tours of Historic Flemington” to highlight our Flemington community. The event is scheduled for Saturday, June 21, 2025 from 11AM to 5PM. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 the day of the event.
The private homes and public buildings selected for our tour will provide visitors a view into the eclectic architecture of our charming borough, including the largest representation of Victorian architecture outside of Cape May as well as Early 20th Century and stunning examples of Greek Revival, Gothic, Colonial and 2nd Empire, for which Flemington is well known. Over 65% of Flemington’s buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This year’s tour currently includes plans for five new homes not included on the tours in the past two years. In addition, we have return favorites including the historic Hunterdon County Courthouse where the Lindbergh “Trial of the Century” took place in 1935 along with the historic jail and cellblock where Bruno Hauptmann was detained during the trial. You can tour the Courthouse and jail at your leisure or participate in guided Courthouse and jail tours which will be at 11AM, Noon, 2PM and 3PM.
Engage our docents at each property to learn about how these iconic sites have contributed to the historic fabric of the borough and the surrounding County of Hunterdon. Visit our downtown’s array of boutiques and eateries as well as our brewery and distillery to make your stay with us more memorable. Free parking can be found in lots throughout the borough as well as along the streets of any of our neighborhoods. We will also have two free looping trolleys passing each of our showcased properties.
As a vibrant community in the midst of exciting changes, we ask that you excuse any issues you may encounter with the revitalization of our Main Street. Several upcoming projects promise to bring even greater opportunities for dining, entertainment and recreation!
Pick up your ticket/guide booklet on the day of event and you also have the option to buy day of event tickets at the Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce at 119 Main Street.
Note – Tickets can only be picked up on Saturday, June 21st starting at 10:30AM. Tickets cannot be purchased at the Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce prior to day of the event – June 21st. Use Eventbrite to purchase tickets in advance.
