    Great place to visit

    We loved our visit to The Henry Ford. What a wonderful vision Mr. Ford had for this amazing museum. Highly recommend it to anyone that has the slightest interest in history. The kids will love it. Lots of neat hands on things to do.

    A Hodge podge of stuff

    More of a collection of stuff than a museum. Airplanes, cars, furniture, signs, etc. It seems like Henry Ford found items that were interesting to him and out them in his museum.

    Wonderful museum

    We spent one afternoon at the Museum. You could spend days and a lot more money, too as everything costs. The museum had more than cars- furniture, planes, too. You need to get an uber or taxi as outside of Detroit.

    What a collection! The ultimate mancave for a collector!!! A hoarders dream!!! There are some very interesting pieces of history accompanied by some very informative boards. A great place to spend the entire day if in Detroit.
