Description

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Heritage Museum and Gardens

The public garden, with its nationally significant collection of rhododendrons hybridized by Charles Dexter, over 1,000 varieties of daylilies and extensive hosta collection, is complemented by three gallery buildings containing a world-class collection of American automobiles, American folk art and a working 1919 carousel and rare carousel figures.

The ground also include the Old East Mill, a windmill built in Orleans, Massachusetts in 1800, and extensively restored in 1999-2000. Visitors may view its interior on special days.

In 2015, an adventure park was added on the grounds

Heritage Museums & Gardens owns an original 1908 Looff Carousel made at Loof's factory in Riverside, Rhode Island. The carousel was originally made for an amusement park in Meridian, Mississippi. The carousel changed hands a few times starting in the 1950s, and was purchased by Heritage Museums & Gardens founder Josiah Lilly in 1968. A special building was constructed for the carousel, which was opened to the public in 1972.
