Rehoboth is a biblical term that means "room enough". The beach area lay untouched until 1872, due to its remote location, when the town was platted by the Methodist Episcopal Church. The railroad made the town more accessible and when the highway replaced the railroad, Rehoboth Beach became a popular tourist destination.
The Anna Hazzard Museum is housed in one of the original "tent" houses from Rehoboth's 1870s camp-meeting era. The museum was named for Anna Hazzard, a former owner and civic leader. Artifacts, photographs and historic newspaper articles from this early period are on display.
