The Ford Piquette Avenue Plant is one of the most significant automotive heritage sites in the world. It is the birthplace of the revolutionary Model T, the car that put the world on wheels. Saved by community members from demolition in 2000, Henry Ford’s iconic factory is now a museum and 121-year-old U.S. National Historic Landmark.
Through photographs, film, exhibits, original artifacts and more than 65 rare vehicles, the museum brings to life the industrial, cultural and social history of the early Motor City. It is the only place in the world to see all of Ford’s early “letter” car models on display, as well as antique vehicles made by Ford’s nearby competitors such as Cadillac, Brush, Regal, Oldsmobile, Studebaker, Dodge, Hupp, Packard, Detroit Electric and others.
Learn how the Model T made Detroit the Silicon Valley of its era and influenced automotive trends into the current century. The museum offers daily guided tours, or visitors can stroll through automotive history at their own pace. For information on upcoming events click here.
