Since its incorporation in 1833; Danville has proved one of the Old Dominion States most interesting and historic cities; ranging from its brief stint as the last capital during the waning hours of the Confederacy; to its role as a major tobacco and textile producer in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; to the citys infamous disasters; such as the wreck of the Old 97. In these images; readers will journey back into the Danville of yesteryear and explore many elements of the citys past: its historic churches along Main Street; its stunning Victorian and Edwardian architectural treasures along Millionaires Row; and many of the citys most recognizable structures; including schools; businesses; and early government buildings.
