Delaware History Museum

Delaware History Museum

In 1998, the Delaware History Museum opened Distinctively Delaware, the first comprehensive exhibit on the state's history. Artifacts for this exhibit cover all aspects of Delaware history - upstate, downstate, urban and rural from pre-historic to modern times. Other exhibits in this museum which opened in the 1990s are rotating, and into 2009 there will be one on firefighting in Delaware.
