Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum Traveling Exhibit!

You’re invited to explore the traveling exhibit The Amazing Castle at the Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum! Come experience the excitement and discover what makes this exhibit so engaging! The exhibit opens May 19, 2026 and will be available to explore until Labor Day Weekend.

Get ready to travel back in time to a magical place where medieval storybook characters come to life. Step inside the castle and get to know the characters who make this wonderful castle a community. In this hands-on exhibit, children don costumes and engage in role-play by becoming lords and ladies, castle villagers or even HiJinx the Jester. Visitors try their hands in the Royal Workshops with Trim the Tailor or Gable the Carpenter. After picking vegetables in the garden, kids tote them to the Great Hall to cook up a royal meal or visit the tower to wake Herald, the sleeping dragon.
