The Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village comprise the nation's largest indoor-outdoor history museum complex. The historical museum focuses on 19th and 20th century industry and machines, especially cars and other vehicles, though it includes other items such as the chair in which Lincoln was shot. The adjacent Village includes many historic buildings, including Edison's Menlo Park lab and the Wright Brothers' bicycle shop. This section of the museum's front is designed as a replica of Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was adopted.
