Corinne's Carriage House and Museum

Monday night, my daughter's 4H club visited Corrine's Carriage House and Museum. What a delight. You have to know where you are going to find it because,like most things worth getting to, it is in the country and up a hill off the road with very little to mark the way. Joe Tetz, the collector, has an eye to restore and preserve stage coaches, a post wagon, horse drawn herses and sleighs and other ephemera connected with the transportation that made America. To find it, from Allentown, go west on 78, north on 100 and turn left onto Werley's Corner Road. Proceed a mile and a quarter and turn right onto Bauch Road and follow that for 2 miles. There is a mail box right after Schockerie Farm. Turn right and head up the road. Joe's sister has decorated the museum with old quilts. There is a team of Friesians in the barn and they will pull the couples horse drawn herse for your funeral if you'd like a bit of Lehigh Valley style. Joe is under a unique contract with the military--he repairs the casson's so they keep rolling, rolling along. They bring them to him.....
