Delaware Museum of Nature & Science
Nature center · Delaware Museum of Nature & Science
The state's natural history museum, on Kennett Pike north of Wilmington. Four galleries, a dinosaur hall, live animal presentations and a Star Lab. It's built for children and doesn't pretend otherwise — under-16s have to have an adult with them the whole way round.
The entrance. The sign in this photograph still reads Delaware Museum of Natural History — the museum was renamed Delaware Museum of Nature & Science after it was taken.
