The
Holyoke Merry-Go-Round is a Philadelphia Toboggan Company
hand carved merry-go-round. The Carousel, PTC #80, was
built in 1927 and installed at Mountain Park in 1929

Mountain Park closed in 1987 and the Merry Go round was
purchased through fundraising, by the City of Holyoke,
and relocated to Heritage State Park in 1993.
The Merry go round has 48 Horses: 16 on the outside row
that are stationary and called Standers, 14 middle row
horses called Jumpers, and 18 inner row horses which are
both Standers and Jumpers, and 2 chariots.
There are 56 original scenic panels, 864 brightly colored
lights and 98 beveled mirrors.
The original Artizan Factories, Inc. band organ provides
music.
