DE 896 was originally built as a state highway during the 1920s and 1930s. By 1938, the route was designated between DE 71 in Summit Bridge and the Maryland border northwest of Newark. In the 1950s, the route was extended to US 13 south ofTownsend, following DE 71 toMiddletown and replacing a part of that route south of there. Between the 1950s and 1990s, various alignments ofUS 301,US 301N, andUS 301S followed DE 896.
