Bund Camp Nordland was a German American Bund recreational camp located near Andover, New Jersey on 204 acres of land.[1]

The camp opened July 18, 1937. It is estimated around 10,000 German-Americans attended the grand opening of Camp Nordland.

On August 18, 1940 an estimated eight hundred Bund members and two hundred Ku Klux Klansmen held a joint meeting at Camp Nordland.[2]

The state of New Jersey closed the camp in the Spring of 1941 when it passed it own anti-Bund law.[3]

The camp was headed by Herman von Busch.
