The town’s slogan is “Gateway to the Mountains.” Thurmont was designated in 2005 as a “Main Street Maryland Community.”Thurmont was originally incorporated in 1751 as the Town of Mechanicstown.

The Western Maryland Railway built its main railroad line to Thurmont in 1871, connecting the town with Baltimore, and later with Hagerstown and Cumberland.
