Exhibits

At both the Dossin Great Lakes Museum and the Detroit Historical Museum, visitors can enjoy a host of permanent and temporary exhibits that will help deepen their understanding of our region’s rich history.  Visitors young and old can walk back in time, to the cobblestone streets of 1840s Detroit, take the ship’s helm in the S.S. William Clay Ford Pilot House, or watch a live “body drop” in front of an authentic assembly line.

From classic automobiles and vintage gowns to artifacts from Detroit’s Boblo Island Amusement Park and a wide range of sports memorabilia, exhibits at the Detroit Historical Museum and the Dossin Great Lakes Museum will delight residents of the region, as well as visitors.
