Chesapeake City Attractions
The Chesapeake and Delaware Canal brought about the existence of Chesapeake City. The canal began in the Chesapeake City location in 1824 and was completed in October of 1829. The town grew in response to the needs of the canal operations and commerce.
The Canal Museum at Chesapeake City provides visitors with a glimpse of the canal's early days. The waterwheel and pumping engines remain in the original pumphouse, now the museum.
