Cute place to stop. Takes about an hour and you'll see what is in the brochure. A ride on the old Merry-go-round is included in price. Nice to see craftsmanship put into the animals.

Ride a carousel. Look at every type of carved animal and creature you can imagine. Watch and talk with real carvers. Get a guided tour from a knowledgeable docent or just wander. Buy something from the nifty gift shop. All inside a unique round building that was our post office when I was young.

Very cool exhibits on merry go round animals from all around the nation, in-house animal repair workshop, and a full size operating carousel (with organ) all in a historic building! I wish there was a bit more information on other aspects of merry go rounds, such as their mechanics, organs, and the fabled brass rings, but it's a great 45 minute visit just to see the carvings. Ticket includes a trip around the merry go round.

This was our 2nd visit. First one was 3 years ago. This museum does a wonderful job of honoring the American Carousel Heritage. The exhibits allow for up close viewing. There is a wonderful carousel to ride. 5 stars in my book!
