Carousel Highlights

The 1908 Looff Carousel

Don't you just love the Carousel at Heritage? Of course, you do, it's a carousel. It is one of the most visited attractions here on the grounds, and if you've seen it, you know why.

Hand-carved by Charles I.D. Looff, this working piece of art is home to several enchanting menagerie figures, and all of these antiques need care. To learn a bit about the restoration process, featuring the 2018 restoration of our Lead Horse "Thunder," click here to view the video.

1908 Looff Carousel Web Page Updates

We've recently added more information and resources to our Carousel webpage. Learn more about it and its artist, Charles I.D. Looff, his life, his work, and his creations.
