Pennsauken Historical Society is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to preserving, studying, and presenting the heritage of Pennsauken Township. Our headquarters and the center of our mission is the Burrough-Dover House, a Quaker farmhouse located on a bend in Pennsauken Creek. The oldest portion of this sandstone farmhouse is believed to date from 1710, and it was occupied by just two families, the Burroughs and the Dovers from that time until about 1960.
We offer four official open-house events annually: Spring Festival, Flag Day, Apple Festival, and Holiday Open House. We also provide tours and other events by appointment.
Our Colonial house-museum is supplemented by the museum of nostalgia now located in the basement area, which displays donated items illustrating old Pennsauken and the way people lived some while before yesterday. Our open house events also offer additional attractions, such as pony-rides or Native American interpreters, and refreshments.
We are always welcoming new members and we are eager to expand our programs with new energy, knowledge, and skills.
So join our group, come to our house, become a member of Pennsauken Historical Society, and get involved in history right around the corner!
