1 Best Sight in Lewes, Delaware

Zwaanendael Museum

The museum raises curiosity no matter where you look. The redbrick exterior’s carved stonework, stepped facade gable, and terra-cotta roof tiles are modeled after a town hall in Hoorn, in the Netherlands—a nod to Delaware's first Dutch settlement, established in 1631. Inside, displays showcase Lewes-area maritime, military, and social history.
