You can help us to continue to preserve our region’s unique heritage by joining the members, donors and friends who support the Detroit Historical Museum. The Museum encourages visitors to journey back in time to the founding of Detroit and discover the history of the people, communities and industries of our region. Walk through our signature exhibit, the Streets of Old Detroit, and experience life in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Learn how the automotive industry started in Detroit and the impact on our community. Experience our new exciting exhibits.

Your support makes a difference! As a private, not-for-profit organization, the Detroit Historical Society, which operates the Museum, relies upon support from individuals and organizations in the community. Donations and memberships help us enhance exhibits, bring schoolchildren to the museum for guided tours and preserve priceless artifacts.
