About The Henningson Memorial Campanile
The tower was completed in 1989 thanks to a donation from Margre Henningson-Durham, who with her husband Charles W. Durham were significant donors for the Durham Science Center. The campanile’s construction is in memory of Margre’s parents, Henning and Rose Henningson, and sister, Helen Henningson-Grimes. The 16-story tower is 168 feet tall and contains 47 bronze bells, weighing a combined 2.5 tons.
