Hamtramck, named after a French Revolutionary War hero, Colonel Jean Francois Hamtramck, was a peaceful German-American farming community in the early 1900s. The 1914 addition of the Dodge Brothers automobile plant attracted large numbers of Polish laborers, and the village quickly grew. It was incorporated as a city in 1922, when it decided to protect itself from becoming annexed by Detroit. Learn the history and culture of Hamtramck as you explore with your enthusiastic guide. This special walking tour will also introduce you to the Hamtramck Historical Museum.
