About
The Hope Historical Society & Museum are located at 323 High Street (Route 519 N) at the top of a stone bridge within the State and National Historic Register district in Hope Township, New Jersey. The tiny frame building was thought to be the original 1820's toll-keepers house. It was used as a private home until 1955 when it was restored by the Hope Historical Society and became the current museum and organizations headquarters.
​
Historical Society meetings with guest speakers of topics of historical interest are held April-November on the first Tuesday of the month, generally, at the Hope Community Center.
