About the Business

The Detroit Central Market, originally constructed in 1860 in downtown Detroit, is now fully reconstructed at Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. This historic market has a rich 160-plus year history that includes commerce, near-demolition, and reconstruction. Visitors can engage with village presenters to learn about the market's significance.
During Detroit Central Market Weekends, guests can explore the historic public market and interact with local vendors, farmers, artisans, and makers. Chef demonstrations, special programming, and a new performance series featuring local performing artists are also available. Access to these events is included with village admission and free for members.
The market building, initially known as the vegetable shed, housed vendors from 1861 to 1893. It captured the exuberance and optimism of Detroit's growth and was an important part of the city's image. The building was moved to Belle Isle in 1894 and served various purposes before being acquired by The Henry Ford in 2003.
After being dismantled and stored, the Detroit Central Market was reconstructed in Greenfield Village starting in 2020. This project showcases how museums collect, preserve, and interpret history, ensuring that this historic structure continues to serve future generations.
