Old Cape May County Courthouse Building, Historic courthouse in Cape May Court House, New Jersey.

The Greek Revival courthouse stands on North Main Street with its grand facade, sturdy columns, and traditional architectural elements from the mid-nineteenth century.

Construction of the building began in 1848 under architect Daniel Hand, serving as Cape May County's primary judicial center until its replacement in 1927.

The courthouse functions as a testament to nineteenth-century American civic architecture and governmental institutions in New Jersey's Cape May County.

Located at coordinates 39°5′2″N and 74°49′26″W, the building received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in December 1981.

The Historic American Buildings Survey documented the structure in 1992, preserving detailed records of its architectural and historical characteristics.
