 Small by milre modern standards, Fleming Costle
 was impressiye for its time and place. It was built in
 1756 by Sefriel Fleming, and first served as an inn
 and tavern. Though it cannot be documented, it is
 saidJhot Gqrge Washington stopped occasionally
 and that ev$t Martha paid a visit. Now a private
 residence o+yed and maintained by the Daughters
town.of the Amerban,$   Revolution, it is the oldest house in





THE COURT HOUSE
 Though Hunterdon County's seat has been at Flem-
 ington since 1785, the current court house wasn't
 built until 1828, os a replacement for one rapd by
fire. Before  it could be built, however" the town wes.-
forced to defeat nearby Lombertville's attempt to
 replace it as the new county seat. Flemington's Jirst
 Greek Revival-style building, the court house was a
focal point for world attention in 1935 as the place
 where Bruno Hauptmann was tried and convicted of
kidnapping the Lihdbergh baby.





DORIC HOUSE
Built in 1846, the Doric House is named after its
prominent Doric-style columns. This impressive ex-
ample of Greek Revival architecture, designed by
architect Mahlon Fisher to be his home, is now
home for the Hunterdon County Historicol Society.A miniature replica, the Southard lfouse, can be
found farther north along Main Street, on the op-
posite side.   www.butkus.us

I,CIVIL WAR MONUMENT
                                                 cen-A life-size Union soldier has stood for nearly a
tury at the intersection of East Main Street and
North Moin Street as "Flemington's grateful tribute
to the self-sacrificing valor of her loyal sons..."
Symbolically, the monument faces where the two
streets become one Main Street, much'ois'the Union
and Confederacy became one ofter the Civil war.





The UNION HOTEL
With its mansard roof and dormer windows, the
Union Hotel as it now apryors has been standing
since 1877, although there has been a;hotel on the
site since at least 1814. It wos a hub bf activity in
 1935 when it was host to scores of iournalists cover-
ing the Lindbergh kidwp trial, No longer offering
lodging, the hotel hos a busy dining room that
features a continuous, floor-to-ceiling mural painted
during the Depression by an unknown, local arttst.




BLACK RIVER & WESTERN
RAILROAD
Like most smoll towns in America, Flemington does
not have the train service it once did. At its peak, in
the 1920's, three lines reportedly served the borough
with 20 trains a day. Unlike most small towns,
however, Flemington can still boast of its own
railroad, complete with open-air cooches. The Black
River & Western Railroad offers rides between
Flemington and nearby Ringoes from mid-April
thro:ugh November; on Sundays there are connec-
ting trains to Lambertville.
