The Rehoboth Beach Museum’s spring 2025 Golden Age of Rehoboth Beach Diorama Talk series will continue with historian Paul Lovett presenting on the “History of Rehoboth’s Train Terminal” on Monday, Feb. 10. The diorama, located in the museum’s first-floor west gallery, depicts the city circa 1910 when the railroad ran down Rehoboth Avenue.
The miniature model includes landmarks like Horn’s Pier and Pavilion and the boardwalk merry-go-round lost in the Storm of 1914. Tiny people in historic dress enjoy activities like strolling, swimming, attending church, and dining, reflecting the pastimes of residents and visitors to the beach. Future gallery talks will cover the Lorenzo Dow Martin Farmhouse and the chronology of Rehoboth’s railroad tracks.
Diorama tours are limited to 15 guests per talk, and reservations can be made on the museum’s website or by phone. The museum, operated by the Rehoboth Beach Historical Society, aims to preserve and showcase the history, culture, and unique character of Rehoboth Beach. Regular hours will resume in March, with the museum open on weekends.
