Flying Horses Antique Carousel
This weekend marked the reopening of the fully restored Flying Horses Antique Carousel, located in Fireman's Park here in Brenham, Texas.
This carousel is one of 8 that still exist in Texas today and is the only example of a C.W. Parker carousel with Herschell-Spillman horses. It is one of the few known examples specifically built for a traveling carnival.
The carousel is housed in a unique 16 sided WPA building and was built sometime between 1895 & 1906.
This weekend the carousel was open on Saturday from 10-5 and Sunday from 1-4. The admission fee was a $1.00 /person/ride.
