Trenton War Memorial, War memorial and performance theater in Downtown Trenton, United States.
The Trenton War Memorial contains a theater that seats 1,807 people and features Renaissance and Art Deco architectural elements throughout its 2.7-acre property.
Built in 1930 to honor Mercer County soldiers and sailors from World War I, the memorial was designed by Philadelphia architect Louis S. Kaplan through a competition.
The Patriots Theater within the memorial building hosts concerts, performances, and community gatherings, serving as a central venue for regional entertainment.
The State of New Jersey maintains the facility, which underwent complete restoration in 1999 to include modern amenities and ensure accessibility compliance.
Multiple commemorative plaques display the names of local service members, while inscriptions above the front porch recognize the military contributions of Trenton citizens.
