History
The Danville Science Center opened in 1995 alongside the Dan River in part of the former Danville station in a section known as the "Crossing at the Dan", a complex of restored historic buildings in Danville’s downtown warehouse district.[3] The museum is now spread over two buildings with the renovation of the Southern Railway Administrative Building in 2005. A full digital dome theater was added in 2014.[4]
