Lewes Historical Society

Reviewed By trishplm - Lewes, United States

Lots of history in Lewes Delaware, and this is one of the best exhibits to see! First, this is located in the Cannonball House located on Front Street. There's a $5 donation per person for self guided tour. You're greeted by a historian in period dress who gives you an overview of the town's history and the exhibits. Although the house appears small, they've packed a lot of history and exhibits in each room. Each room is dedicated to a specific part of history --defending the town during the 1812 war; the fishing industry; wireless transmitter; building the breakwater; and pilots role to safely pilot boats up the Delaware Bay and River to ports of Wilmington and Philadelphia.
