Delaware City is a historic riverfront town located in New Castle County, Delaware, situated along the Delaware River. Founded in the early 19th century, this small community has played a significant role in the region's maritime and industrial heritage.

The town is notably home to Fort Delaware, a Civil War-era fortress located on Pea Patch Island, which served as a Union prison during the American Civil War and now functions as a state park and museum. Delaware City's waterfront location and historic district, with its well-preserved 19th-century architecture, reflect its past as a crucial shipping port and industrial center. The town continues to maintain its historical character while serving as a gateway to various cultural and historical attractions in the region.
