About The Heidelberg Project

The Heidelberg Project in Wayne County, Michigan is a wacky and wonderful expression of art that is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who visits. This outdoor art installation covers an entire city block and is made up of found objects, recycled materials, and bright bold colors. You'll see everything from stuffed animals hanging from trees, to polka dots painted on abandoned homes. Some might say it's an eyesore, but to me, it's a bold celebration of creativity and imagination.
Address : 3600 Heidelberg St, Detroit, MI 48207, USA

From war heroes to famous athletes, the cemetery boasts a diverse population of buried individuals. And if you're lucky enough, you might even stumble upon the resting plot of a beloved pet.

Old St. Mary's Catholic ChurchOld St. Mary's Catholic Church is a stunning example of 19th-century Gothic Revival architecture. With its towering spires and intricate detailing, it's hard not to be in awe of this historic structure.
