Description

It was on this site that the historic Ford T was born. Henry Ford decided to locate his factory on Piquette Avenue because of its proximity to the railroad. An interesting example of industrial architecture, the museum covers a surface area of more than 6 000m2. You will see one of seven surviving B-models (1904), as well as other cars from the brand or the competition. Henry Ford's office and the workshop where the Model T was born have been reconstructed.
