C.W. Parker Carousel Museum

Preserved carousels and related interpretation connect the city with a manufacturing tradition that traveled to fairs and parks across the country.

Check current museum and carousel operating arrangements before arriving. The photograph shows the museum exterior. A ride may follow a separate schedule or ticket option from the galleries, and historic equipment is operated under staff supervision. Seasonal closures and volunteer availability can affect public opening, so organize groups in advance and follow current rider guidance.
