The New Castle Historical Society is dedicated to preserving the rich history of New Castle, Delaware, through its two historic house museums: the c. 1690 Dutch House and the 1738 Amstel House. These museums offer engaging tours, programs, and exhibitions that allow visitors to connect with the local heritage and explore the artifacts of America's past.

In addition to showcasing historical homes, the society hosts a variety of educational events and activities throughout the year, including the popular Fourth Friday Art on the Town and themed tours like Hauntings in History.
