Zwaanendael Museum

is a must-see on your getaway, especially its beautiful park.

The first European settlement in the state of Delaware was called Zwaanendael. It was a short-lived colony established in 1631 by the Dutch. The site of this original settlement later became the town of Lewes. The Zwaanendael Museum in Lewes was established on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of this first settlement. The museum is modeled after the State House in Hoom, The Netherlands. The building features many elements from 17th century Dutch architecture. The exhibits inside the museum tell the story of the history of Sussex County. Exhibit topics include shipwrecks, lighthouses, the bombardment of the town of Lewes in the War of 1812, the ever-shifting Delaware coastline and other aspects of local history and culture.
