    Walt Disney visited Henry Ford Museum with his wife, Lillian, and daughter, Diane, in August 1943. Disney visited the museum and neighboring Greenfield Village multiple times. The latter, with its re-created historical main street, railroad depot, and lagoon and steamboat, undoubtedly influenced Disney's ideas for his own Disneyland theme park, which opened in 1955.
