History of the Museum

The museum was founded 1958 in Hamtramck in a building that formerly was a bank on Woodward Avenue in Detroit. The structure was moved to Hamtramck and placed on the corner of Commor and Charest Street across from Immaculate Conception Church. Later the structure was purchased by Mr. Roman Dacko and his wife, Ivanka, who arrived here after World War II. He started to collect folklore, paintings, ceramics, historical documents, books and photographs.
