About Northwest Carriage Museum
All aboard kids, and welcome to the Northwest Carriage Museum in Washington state, where history abounds as you visit one of the finest collections of 19th century carriages in the country, plus historical artifacts, wagons, and buggys too!
This family friendly museum is not only a journey back through the history books, but it's also family-friendly, and educational too.
The Northwest Carriage Museum is home to over 50 beautifully restored horse drawn vehicles - kids, just imagine living in a time when carriages were the common mode of transport!
In fact, carriages were known as the "Cadillacs of their day", complete with ivory door locks, brocade trim and a pretty impressive leather interior!
Don't miss checking out an actual carriage used in Gone with the Wind - parents we know you know it! You can also see an English Road Coach that delivered mail in the 1850s, and even a Carved Panel Hearse that was used in the Errol Flynn movie Gentleman Jim.
Not only can you see some incredible artifacts from the past, but it really gives kids a first hand insight into what life was like over 100 years ago, as opposed to just reading history books - including seeing how to make a wheel!
A fun trip through the history books at the Northwest Carriage Museum, so climb aboard kids, we're off to enjoy our family day out!

Teachers corner
Their tours for students are educational, fun and a learning experience. They have tailored school tours for almost every age group, where kids can learn about the carriages, their manufacturing history, their usage and the history of the horse drawn transportation era. In their 1890 schoolhouse, they talk about the one room classroom, and demonstrate how wooden wheels were made. For younger students, the opportunity to make butter or corn husk dolls can be provided. Students always enjoy putting on period clothing or a coon skin cap for a group photo on our Three Spring Democrat Wagon.
