A carriage museum is a museum that displays carriages, coaches, sleighs, wagons, and other horse-drawn vehicles. Many collections are part of transport museums alongside automobiles and other non-horse-powered transport. Others, especially in Europe, are housed in historic structures such as palaces, royal stables, and historic estates.
