On Thanksgiving Day in 2012, a fire destroyed the roof of the Benjamin Cooper Tavern. A temporary roof was installed in 2016, and the Camden County Historical Society has been raising money for extensive renovations over the last few years. The exterior of this 1734 historic tavern is almost complete, and the first floor will open as the American Revolution Museum of Southern New Jersey on June 20, 2026! We are still raising funds to match grants and restore this building to its full potential! Every dollar you give is doubled through matching grants! Visit our website to learn more about the project and to donate! Happy Thanksgiving! https://cchsnj.org/donate/

The Benjamin Cooper Tavern (1734) exterior wall restoration will be complete before the cold weather sets in! We plan to open the first floor on June 20, 2026 as the American Revolution Museum of Southern New Jersey, 2 weeks before America’s 250th birthday! The front of the 1734 historic tavern naturally faces the river and the back faces the modern street system.
