Washington Township, Warren County, New Jersey
Washington Township is a township in Warren County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.

Mansfield Township, also in Warren County, borders both this municipality and another Washington Township in Morris County.

Washington Township was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 9, 1849, from portions of Mansfield Township. Portions of the township were taken on February 20, 1868, to create Washington Borough. The township was named for George Washington, one of more than ten communities statewide named for the first president. It is one of five municipalities in the state of New Jersey with the name "Washington Township". Another municipality, Washington Borough, is completely surrounded by Washington Township.
