The town was settled more than 350 years ago by the Dutch West India Company. After several name and ownership changes, the town came to be called New Castle in 1664. There is a historic district in downtown New Castle that contains several buildings that are hundreds of years old.

There are a handful of colleges within commuting distance of New Castle, including Wesley College and the Delaware Technical Community College.
