Top Historical landmarks in Dearborn, United States

Outstanding opportunity to see modern manufacturing technology at work. It was absolutely fascinating to see pickup trucks assembled right before your eyes by a combination of automation and efficient use of human resources. I especially appreciated that we were not herded through in a group, but were allowed to proceed at our own pace. This tour should be a "must see" for any Michigan visit.

This place is amazing. There is so much history to be learned here.They have the bus Rosa Parks made history own. You are able to sit inside of it. If you're planning on going here. Make it more of a day thing. I didn't realize how much there really was to do here. There's a village too which we didn't get to do because of the time we arrived.

Our family stopped in to visit the museum on the way back from a trip through Canada and we're glad we took the slight detour on our way back home.

There is so much automotive and American history packed into this space.

We could have spent many more hours walking around looking at exhibits but the youngest of our kids had finally had enough after 3 hours.

Be sure to check out the paper airplane creation space if you have little ones. We spent the most time there tweaking our designs for the ultimate flight distance.

The presidential limos and train area were really cool as well.

Very high ticket price plus paid parking is extreme, but the museum does have a nice collection. The layout is a labyrinth that you have to snake through to see everything. If you read every sign and marker, you could spend more than a day here probably. Even with a more casual interest, I spent a few hours wandering around. Some interesting oddities include the bus Rosa Parks protested on, the chair Abraham Lincoln was shot in, and JFK's infamous car. Interesting pieces of history, albeit at an exorbitant cost.

My boyfriend and I visited the Ford museum the end of August last year. We live about 6 hours away in Kentucky. He works in the automotive industry. We both enjoy learning and going to museums. This museum was spectacular! It was huge! It definitely takes a few hours to get through. We bought our tickets once we arrived. You can also purchase them online in advance. There is plenty of parking. There is a restaurant inside the museum as well as a food court area. We had a great day! We did not go to the Village but plan to go there next time!

Hands down the most fascinating museum of all time and to think how priceless this exhibit is! You see everything from the light bulb is invented to the car JFK was assassinated to riding in the cars that put the world on wheels…..the Model T. You can watch glass blowing, pottery making, knitting and weaving, printing and more! There is so much effort and truly honoring exhibits to the American legacy as a country and the inventions made that have bettered the lives of many for more than a century! What an honor to come see all this in person! They even had a Tucker Torpedo! Such a rare vehicle! You can go in trains and the stations for kids were neat too! Kids could do some neat projects too! Hands down a MUST

Exceeded my expectations!
This place is broken up into so many subcategories and is so massive it just goes on and on and I really was blown away by it!
If you want to see everything you need to plan on a couple days. There are tickets that you can buy that you can keep overnight and bring back the next day if that's necessary in your situation.
I only went through the museum itself which would be 3 to 4 hours if you walk briskly. There's also the village area which would take an entire day as well. At the time of writing this the museum ticket was $35 per adult in the village area ticket was $41 per adult. The museum has an area with miniature doll houses, steam engines, agricultural equipment from long ago, etc.
There was even mathematics exhibit and science center where you can get your geek on... There were a lot of kids in this area as well as the area that had dinosaurs.
There are full size airplanes hanging.
There were massive train engines and cars throughout the exhibit showing you how massive and big this building is!
I did not see everything so I look forward to going back someday!

Very disappointed they make you pay to park here. The ticket prices are high enough as it is.

That is my only complaint. Other than that, this place is phenomenal. Spiritual almost when you interact with some of the artifacts and displays. Getting to sit in the bus Rosa Parks made history on was unforgettable.

The ticket price is high and worth it. The parking is a scam.

Really good time. Had 4 hours to kill before a flight and spent it wandering here. In the four hours I was there I probably saw half or less of what the museum offers. I could easily spend two days here. The staff was fantastic and the kids loved it.

I highly recommend touring this place! It is a neat piece of history and innovation. We were there on a holiday weekend, so we did not get to see the factory in full operation, but it is still very worthwhile. Overall a very worthwhile place to visit!

We gad the all acess tour with factory, museum and village for 191 Dollar for two people. But "all acess" does not mean, that the rides in the village are included. I understand, that the borrowing of the Ford T in the village costs extra. But not including the train ride for nearly 200 Bucks seems a little greedy to me.
Anyway, the factorytpor is great, although no pictures are allowed. The rather small and expensive giftshop is nice. The stuff is very friendly! Take notice that in the museum there is the famous Spirit of St Louis, Rosa Barks Bus and Lincoln's chair, in which he was assassinated!

Amazing experience! You get to see the assemble line of the Ford F-150 (photos are prohibited) and learn about how everything works inside the plant. Recommended for everybody, whether you are interested in the industry or not!

A very cool tour I wasn't able to take many pictures. There was about 6 stations to look at, 2 videos and a few stations to view cars, there was a factory over look.

Just one amazing place. God Bless the Ford family and God Bless the men and women who work there. This place is truly a testament to the passion and drive of hard working Americans!!!

The tour was GREAT! Very informative, educational and well designed. The staff from start to finish were friendly and professional. The assembly line was amazing to see!

The Rouge river next to the Ford complex is the most polluted in the United States.
Thanks UAW for supporting Ford. 🙄
