Located near the Ferris wheel in Navy Pier Park is the Pier’s exclusively designed musical carousel. This whimsical work of art recreates the Pier’s golden age of the 1920s when a similar attraction delighted another generation of visitors. The Navy Pier Carousel's three dozen hand-painted animals represent different styles found throughout the history of carousels, a great American folk art. Horses, chariots, and a playful frog are just a few of the featured characters waiting to carry children of all ages. The hand-painted rounding boards at the top of the 44-foot carousel depict scenes of Navy Pier’s history.Address: 600 East Grand Avenue, Chicago
