Cultural Center Historic District, Historic district in Detroit, United States.

The Cultural Center Historic District contains multiple buildings that showcase neoclassical and modernist architectural styles across several downtown blocks in Detroit.

The district received its National Register of Historic Places designation in 1966 through the National Historic Preservation Act to protect significant American structures.

Museums, theaters, and libraries within the district present regular exhibitions of art, science, and historical artifacts that document Detroit's development.

The Detroit Institute of Arts, Detroit Historical Museum, and Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History maintain regular opening hours throughout the week.

Buildings throughout the district incorporate architectural elements from both European and American design traditions of the early twentieth century.
