The Oakland Scottish Rite Center was completed in 1927, with over a thousand craftsmen working on the project. The construction cost was approximately $1.5 million. This was a sizeable sum at the time equivalent to about $22 million today. From ground breaking to completion the edifice was erected in just two years.

“From the time we got engaged, my now husband and I thought it would be so cool to get married at a science museum. Chabot did not disappoint! We first visited Chabot in May of 2020, two months after we got engaged, and right in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. We worked with Samantha, Nicole, and Victoria, who were all awesome. From the get-go the Chabot staff were extremely flexible and accommodating, and that only continued throughout our experience with them (we had to reschedule once due to Covid). Rain was threatening the day of our ceremony, and the Chabot staff did not miss a beat with helping us through a backup plan. Our guests had a great time, we had an awesome time, and we can't recommend Chabot highly enough as a venue for geeky weddings.”
