The Carousel at Pottstown

This gorgeous, retro, amazingly picturesque carousel is located very close by to Reading, up near Pottstown! It was the CUTEST little place. The carousel is indoor (so it’s a great day trip for a rainy day or a PRIME photo location!). TThis place also has some arcade games, a small cafe, and it’s so delightful.

About

Our Carousel is the second oldest operating Philadelphia Toboggan Company wooden carousel in the United States.

It took almost 20 years of volunteer efforts to renovate. Each custom carved figure took local artists over 250 hours to sand, paint, and finish. We also have an original 1860 horse drawn Trolley car originally from Wilmington, DE which has been restored, and now, is our snack bar.

Ample tables and seating accommodate your group, small or large! Additionally, benches surround the carousel providing a front row view of the fun. A number of child-friendly arcade games are also available as alternative entertainment for young and old alike. Our newly renovated lobby and gift shop features a vast array of souvenir items such as ornaments, t-shirts, glasses and Reppert’s candy.
