The Havre de Grace Decoy Museum, located on the banks of the historic Susquehanna Flats, boasts one of the finest collections of working and decorative Chesapeake Bay decoys. Established in 1986 as a private non-profit institution, the museum is dedicated to preserving the rich historical and cultural legacy of waterfowling and decoy making in the Chesapeake Bay region.
Decoys, once simple tools designed to lure waterfowl for hunters, have evolved into sophisticated works of art crafted by contemporary carvers using traditional techniques passed down through generations. Visitors to the museum can explore the artistry of decoy making and the waterfowling traditions that have made Havre de Grace renowned as the Decoy Capital of the World.
