The Detroit Historical Society's Encyclopedia of Detroit is a comprehensive online resource on the city's history, people, places, and events. It offers well-researched articles on cultural, industrial, and social topics, including significant figures, landmarks, and institutions, often with photographs and multimedia. The encyclopedia aims to educate the public, support researchers, and deepen understanding of Detroit's legacy.
The Detroit Historical Museum will be closed Wednesday, November 26 and Thursday, November 27 for the Thanksgiving Holiday. The museum will resume normal business hours on Friday.
