Sudeep Banerjee Review of DuPont

Lovely place for a relaxed weekend getting immersed in history related to the 8th largest. Chemical company in the world today. You also come to know about the Dupont family started humbly, the importance of Black Powder/gun powder in the 1800's and why they decided to start in Wilmington. Tremendous piece of history for kids and adults . They also give a tour of the 1st Dupont family home, a tour of the gun powder mills and how they made it and finally live demo of firing a mini canon using gun powder . Beautiful place to just walk around as well .
Note : Gets more interesting if you ask questions. I asked them about the role of the family in the civil war given they were the largest producers in US and I heard what I had suspected. Visit and find out :) .
