The Great Falls Discovery Center is operated by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation with financial, volunteer, and program support from the Friends of the Great Falls Discovery Center.
Come learn about the natural, cultural, and industrial history of the Connecticut River Watershed!
The Great Falls Discovery Center is a state park located in a complex of beautiful old mill buildings in downtown Turners Falls, Massachusetts.

Our exhibits are free, fully accessible and open to the public.
