About Meadow Brook Hall
Meadow Brook Farms was purchased by John and Matilda Dodge in 1908. The Dodge Brothers, John and Horace, designed their first car (which debuted in 1914) on the farm property, the eventual location of Meadow Brook Hall (1926-1929). The Dodges and John’s son, Danny, were avid hunters, fishermen and sportsmen.
Meadow Brook Hall is fully self-funded, relying on special events such as the annual Gourmet Wild Game Dinner for the preservation and interpretation of this National Historic Landmark. For more information about the event, call (248) 364-6263 or visit meadowbrookhall.org
A National historic Landmark, Meadow Brook Hall is the historic home built by one of the automotive aristocracy’s most remarkable women, Matilda Dodge Wilson, widow of auto pioneer John Dodge, and her second husband, Alfred Wilson. Constructed between 1926 and 1929, Meadow Brook Hall represents one of the finest examples of Tudor-revival architecture in America, and is especially renowned for its superb craftsmanship, architectural detailing and grand scale of 88,000 square-feet. It was the center of a country estate that included 1,500 acres, numerous farm buildings, recreational facilities, several residences and formal gardens.
Meadow Brook Hall strives to preserve and interpret its architecture, landscape, and fine and decorative art so that visitors may be entertained, educated and inspired by history.
