Warren County's historic county seat — a small Delaware River town known for Victorian architecture, the 1826 courthouse, Garret D. Wall Park, community theater, riverfront scenery and a walkable collection of local restaurants and shops.
Belvidere combines the role of county seat with the scale and character of a small historic river town.
Belvidere was incorporated as a town on April 7, 1845 from portions of Oxford Township, but its importance to Warren County began earlier. After Warren County was created in 1824, Belvidere was selected as the county seat in 1825. The Warren County Courthouse was built the following year and remains one of the town's defining landmarks.
The town sits where the Pequest River meets the Delaware River, with White Township surrounding Belvidere on the New Jersey side and Pennsylvania directly across the Delaware. Much of the community remains compact and walkable, with historic homes, civic buildings, churches, parks, shops and restaurants clustered around the traditional center of town.
A day in Belvidere can easily combine architecture, parks, shopping, coffee, dining and local history without leaving the center of town.
