Description

The Zwaanendael Museum was created to honor the 300th anniversary of Delaware's first European settlement, Zwaanendael, founded in 1631. It models the former City Hall in Hoorn, Netherlands and features 17th century Dutch elements such as stepped facade gable, terra cotta roof tiles, carved stonework, and decorated shutters. It has exhibits that represent the history of Sussex County by revealing the history of those who lived in Delaware's southeastern coast.
