Spencer Park Dentzel Carousel, Historic carousel in Riverside Park, Logansport, Indiana, United States.

The Spencer Park Dentzel Carousel spans 42 feet in diameter and includes hand-carved animals arranged three abreast on sixteen platforms.

Built between 1900 and 1903 by the Dentzel Carousel Company, this carousel moved to Logansport after Fort Wayne's Robison Park closed in 1919.

The carousel features various hand-carved wooden animals including horses, lions, tigers, deer, antelope, giraffes, and four two-seat chariots for passengers.

The carousel operates seasonally in Riverside Park at 1208 Riverside Drive, where visitors can experience rides on the restored mechanical attraction.

An original brass ring dispenser mechanism remains functional, offering free rides to visitors who successfully catch a ring during their journey.
