Carroll County Visitors Center Moves to New Location July 1st

Westminster, MD, Friday, June 21, 2024 – Carroll County Office of Tourism announces that the Carroll County Visitors Center will move to a new location at the Carroll County Farm Museum at 500 South Center Street in Westminster beginning Monday, July 1, 2024. The current location at 1838 Emerald Hill Lane in Westminster will close operations on June 25, 2024 in order to prepare and facilitate the move.

The Visitors Center helps residents and visitors navigate the county’s beautiful rural areas, historic sites and parks. The center provides information and aid to any current or potential tourists and acts as the main point of contact for tourists’ travel planning inquiries, as well as providing a place where local and surrounding area businesses can promote their products and services.

“We are excited to see the Visitor Center move to be housed with one of our tourism gems, the Carroll County Farm Museum,” said Economic Development Director Denise Beaver. “Almost 80,000 visitors came to the museum last year and this type of traffic will expose our guests to the Visitors Center where they can learn more about things to do in our beautiful county.”

Hours for the center are currently Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday noon – 4 p.m., and closed on Sundays. The center is open on some holidays with hours noon to 4 p.m.; however, it is closed on New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
