Haddonfield Attractions

Francis Collins became the first settler, within the boundaries of what is today Haddonfield, in 1682. In 1698, John Haddon sent his 20 year old daughter, Elizabeth, to lay claim to his new holdings. She arrived in June 1701. Elizabeth Haddon named this land "Haddonfield" in honor of her father. Elizabeth remained here until her death in 1762.

Haddonfield flourished throughout the 18th century; by the Revolution it was the largest village in the area.
Hip Roof House (Samuel Mickle House)
The Hip Roof House, which dates to the early 1700s, is the oldest residence in Haddonfield. It was built at a time when early settlers and local Leni Lenape Indians lived together in this wilderness area.
Indian King Tavern Museum
Built in 1750, the Indian King Tavern was named for the local Lenape Indians. It is an example of eighteenth-century colonial tavern architecture as well as the site where New Jersey was legally created.
