The Ray A. Kroc Museum
McDonald's Plaza

  Ray Kroc was as American as baseball, apple pie, and hamburgers.  He was a dreamer, a fierce competitor, a brilliant business innovator and a man who believed in giving back to the community.

The museum presents and documents Ray's life and values from growing up in Oak Park, Illinois, to selling shake mixers where he met the McDonald brothers, to founding and building the McDonald's Corporation.
