Museum Of Small Town Life

Museum Of Small Town Life

The museum's interior represents a late 19th century main street featuring five shops that were common in many of Delaware's small towns. The exhibits allow visitors to observe workways and lifestyles in the time period immediately preceding the invention of electricity. These five shops are a print shop, woodworking shop, pharmacy, general store, and post office.
