Spend a day in Historic New Castle

A visit to May Market can be the beginning of a lovely day in Historic New Castle. Stop by the Visitor's Center at the Arsenal on Market Street. Stroll cobblestone streets, explore shops and house museums, grab a bite at a restaurant, and walk along the Delaware River through Battery Park.
