About this place

A museum in Sandusky devoted to the history and artistry of American carousels. Families can view hand-carved carousel animals, restored figures from different eras, and vintage band organs on display. The building itself is historic, housed in a former post office. Volunteers work in an on-site restoration workshop, occasionally demonstrated during special events, where carousel pieces are repaired and carved using traditional techniques.

If you are a member here

A membership to Merry-Go-Round Museum carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in this program.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
