East Providence
Crescent Park Carousel
One of the finest surviving examples of handcarved carousels in the country, the Crescent Park Carousel is proclaimed as the state symbol of folk art. Constructed in the 1890s by Charles Looff, the carousel was lovingly crafted with 62 horses, four chariots and a camel. Each piece is unique, and the collection is set on a 50-foot diameter wooden circular platform. It’s wheelchair accessible and makes a great place for photos and relaxation.
Minimum Time Required: 30 minutes
