Carillon Historical Park inspires generations by connecting them with the unique people, places, and events that changed Dayton and the world. With more than 30 museum exhibits onsite, Carillon Historical Park showcases Dayton’s rich heritage of creativity, invention, and milestones in innovation that changed the nation and the world!

Berry, Sr. Wright Brothers National Museum featuring the original 1905 Wright Flyer III, an impressive collection of NCR cash registers, the Carousel of Dayton Innovation, Gem City Letterpress (NEW!), and so much more!

The Museum’s mission is to educate present and future generations about the Packard Motor Car Company, its products, and philosophies. Since 1992, America’s Packard Museum has been at the forefront of automotive preservation and educating the public, especially children, about design, engineering, history, innovation, and technology. The collection is a carefully curated gathering of prime examples from the company’s 65- year history, each chosen to tell a particular story. Packard built 1.6 million cars and only about 10,000 still exist. The Museum manages the largest public collection of Packard automobiles and memorabilia in the world, is 60,000 sq. feet, and it contains over fifty cars, thousands of parts, and a research library. The museum is in an original 1917 Packard dealership facility, it continues to improve our facilities, expand collections and exhibits, and follow all professional best practices. All guests are welcome!
