About Marvel Carriage Museum

The Marvel Carriage Museum in Georgetown, Delaware displays a collection of antique carriages in two large barns. Visitors can also see several older buildings on the property, including a one-room schoolhouse from the 1830s. Exhibits also cover local Georgetown history, with items such as victrolas, photographs, telephones, and period furniture. Because volunteers run the museum, opening days and hours can change, so calling ahead is advised. The Lynch Building on the grounds is also available to rent for private events such as weddings and parties.
