Wyandotte, Waterfront city in Wayne County, Michigan, United States.
Located 11 miles south of Detroit along the Detroit River, Wyandotte encompasses 7 square miles with streets lined by historical buildings.
The land belonged to the Wyandot Native Americans until 1818, when they signed a treaty with the United States government ceding their territory.
German, Irish, Italian, and Polish immigrants shaped the development of Wyandotte through multiple generations, influencing local traditions and community gatherings.
The municipal government operates 23 public parks, maintains its own power plant, and provides essential services through the Wyandotte Municipal Services website.
The Eureka Iron Works, established in 1854, marked the beginning of Wyandotte's industrial era and coincided with the founding of the original village.
