Danville Junction Grange # 65, Androscoggin County, 1898-1966
The Danville Junction Grange # 65 is a building which has served the community of Danville, a village in Auburn, Maine for 118 years. The building was erected by members of the Grange between 1898 and 1901 to serve as their meeting hall. The two story building is essentially vernacular in style but reproduces the functional plan common to many Grange buildings of this period. Throughout the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries the Grange, or Patrons? of Husbandry, was an important social and fraternal organization with an emphasis on agricultural education.
