Paulsdale, in Mount Laurel Township, Burlington County, New Jersey, United States, was the birthplace and childhood home of Alice Paul, a major leader in the Women's suffrage movement in the United States. Paulsdale was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1991.

The Paul family purchased 173 acres (0.70 km²) and the 1840 farmhouse around 1883.^[3] During the 1950s, Paulsdale was divided into two parcels: 167 acres (0.68 km²) of farmland and the remaining 6 acres (24,000 m²) which included the house and farm buildings. Both parcels were sold in the 1950s. The larger became a housing development, the smaller was a private residence until it was purchased by the Alice Paul Institute in 1990.

The house has been restored to the condition when Alice Paul lived there. It now serves as a house museum and a home for the Institute.^[4]
