Where is Harley-Davidson’s global headquarters located?

Harley-Davidson’s global headquarters is located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The company was founded in Milwaukee in 1903, and the city has remained central to its corporate identity. Harley-Davidson’s early motorcycles were developed and built there as the business grew from a small workshop into a major manufacturer.

Milwaukee is also associated with several important Harley-Davidson landmarks, including the company’s historic Juneau Avenue facilities and the Harley-Davidson Museum. The museum opened in 2008 and displays motorcycles, documents, racing memorabilia, and other company artifacts.

A common mix-up is confusing Harley-Davidson’s headquarters with its largest modern assembly plants, which have operated in several U.S. states and other countries. Milwaukee is the corporate home and historic birthplace, not the location of every Harley-Davidson factory.
