Great museum if you're into old carriages. Actually, even if your not, it's a cool stop to make!

The amount of material this museum has for the price you pay is well worth it to visit. I've been in museums that charge three times as much and don't have the amount of preservation and information this one has. We'll worth the time and hour we spent walking around.
