A whole museum dedicated to the iconic merry-go-round!? Why not! This relaxed and beautifully set out museum will take you back through time as you learn about the history and art of these favourite pastimes.
The museum takes old, broken run down carousel pieces and restores them with love and care to their former selves. It’s history coming back to life.
You can even ride on a full restored Allan Herschell Carousel complete with the band organ playing. Parents will be taken back to a time of their childrenhood, while kids will love the simplicity of such an experience, and the joy it brings.
You can see the process of crafting these beautiful horses with their wood carving workshops which helps people understand the beauty and importance of these iconic rides.
Clearly for younger children. Some interesting early carrousel info but only enough to keep you briefly entertained. Personally, not worth the price of admission.
The detail here is amazing.
