Soon to be meticulously restored for the enjoyment of all, The Magistery is honored to offer rides on this majestic carousel’s blended menagerie of original hand-carved wooden horses and newly crafted mythical horses from cultures across the globe.
From a Parker Stargazer or Armored Jumper to a Unicorn, Slepnir, Pegasus, Kelpie, and many more,
this carousel is truly one-of-a-kind.
