A Few Notes Regarding the Hill-Fulper-Stangl Potteries Museum:
The Hill-Fulper-Stangl Potteries Museum Display was housed in the original Stangl Pottery educational display kiln at the old Fulper Pottery factory building in Flemington, NJ from April 2000 through April 2005. At that time, the building was owned by Pfaltzgraff Pottery of York, PA and operated as a retail factory outlet showroom.
The Hill-Fulper-Stangl Museum Display expanded on the original Stangl Pottery educational display by exhibiting over 150 years’ of company output ~ beginning with Hill Pottery 1830s-era earthen vessels and drain pipe up through Stangl’s Town & Country dinnerware of the late 1970s. This was the same kiln remembered fondly by shoppers visiting Stangl’s factory showroom during the 1950s-1960s.
The very popular Hill-Fulper-Stangl Museum Display was a favorite destination for Stangl collectors from across the nation, and had even been visited by international students of pottery craft.
The Museum is now closed permanently due to the sale of the Pfaltzgraff Company and closure of their retail stores.
