Motor City History At The Detroit Historical Museum!

Hey all!

Today, we're at the Detroit Historical Museum in Midtown to explore the rich history of the Motor City! This place has a bit of everything—from a Detroit Red Wings showcase and a step-by-step automotive assembly line to a full-scale walkthrough of historic Detroit. We’ll also check out the city's French colonial roots, its legendary music scene, and a massive atrium featuring the iconic Little Caesars statue. There’s so much ground to cover, so let’s dive right into the photo report!
