Pullen Park Carousel, Historic carousel in Pullen Park, Raleigh, United States
The Pullen Park Carousel features 52 hand-carved basswood animals, including horses, ostriches, cats, rabbits, and pigs, accompanied by 18 gilded mirrors.
Built in 1900 by G.A. Dentzel and Salvatore Cernigliaro, the carousel moved from Bloomsbury Park to Pullen Park in 1921 after the City Board decision.
The carousel represents Pennsylvania Carousel Company craftsmanship, with only 23 historic Dentzel carousels remaining operational in North America today.
Visitors can purchase tickets at the Pullen Park Welcome Center to experience rides on this National Register of Historic Places attraction.
The carousel maintains its original music through a Wurlitzer #125 band organ from 1924, manufactured by the Rudolph Wurlitzer Company.
