5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedAt the Baltimore Harbor, you'll get up close and personal with some of the oldest ships in the country!National Aquarium
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe harbor's main attraction is the USS Constellation. This three-mast ship predates the Civil War, and was actually used to chase down and apprehend vessels illegally carrying enslaved prisoners!Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedNext is the National Aquarium, home to over 20,000 sea and land creatures. If you're looking for the perfect family-friendly activity, you'll find it here!National Katyn Memorial
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedBeyond the lighthouse, you'll find one of Baltimore's strangest attractions: Mr. Trash Wheel. This innovative device helps keep the harbor clean and looks good while doing it!Frederick Douglass - Isaac Myers Maritime Park
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThis park is dedicated to honoring African-American maritime history. It gets its name from renowned abolitionist Frederick Douglass and pioneering unionist Isaac Myers. Both men worked at the shipyard that once operated here at different times.The Horse You Came In On Saloon
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedOld-school watering hole in a Colonial-era building, offering drinks, pub fare & live music nightly.Fells Point Corner Theatre
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedOriginally founded as an independent town in 1763, Fells Point still retains much of its historic appearance. Back in the days of Frederick Douglass, this was home to a large number of free and enslaved African Americans. Many of them worked at the ship port like Douglass, and the cheap houses here were all they could afford.Frederick Douglass - Isaac Myers Maritime Park
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedYou might already be familiar with Frederick Douglass’s abolitionist work, but did you know he was also a staunch advocate for women’s rights? Douglass believed “Right is of no sex, truth is of no color.” In 1848, Douglass attended the First Women’s Rights Convention in Seneca Falls, New York. Here, he met Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony and committed himself to their cause. While touring the country advocating for abolition, Douglass also began arguing for women’s rights. He called for all Americans, no matter their race or sex, to be granted the right to vote.Reginald F. Lewis Museum
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedYour route takes you next past the National Katyn Memorial, a striking and somber monument with some fascinating history.Baltimore City Hall
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedIt’s hard to miss Baltimore City Hall, that regal structure just ahead. Shortly after its completion, this was the site of a violent altercation between two Baltimore politicians. In 1883, James Busey and William Harig, both democrats, got into a heated political argument just outside the city hall. Harig, punched Busey. The two brawled, then sprang away and simultaneously drew pistols. Both men began firing wildly, but Harig’s aim was much better than Busey’s. Four bullets hit Busey in the chest, killing him. Constables arrived and arrested Harig for murder.Washington Monument and Mount Vernon Place
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThis pillar ahead is Baltimore’s Washington Monument. It might remind you of another Washington Monument… a slightly more famous one in a little town called D.C. Believe it or not, though, this isn’t actually a copycat! In fact, this was the very first major monument to honor George Washington. The architect, Robert Mills, just liked the design so much he decided to use it again in D.C.--only much bigger, of course.Edgar Allan Poe's Grave
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedIn the 1930s, this gravestone started seeing a mysterious visitor. On January 19th, Poe’s birthday, a man appeared at the marker wearing all black, a wide-brimmed hat, and a white scarf to hide his face. He poured himself a glass of cognac and toasted Poe’s grave. Then he left three roses and the unfinished bottle and disappeared. The man returned the following year, and the year after that. The so-called “Poe Toaster” arrived at odd hours, usually under cover of darkness, and fled before anyone could discover his identity.H. L. Mencken House
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedYou'll arrive next at the Frederick Douglass-Isaac Myers Maritime Park, dedicated to the two historical heavyweights in its name. Here, you'll learn all about these important figures and how they forever changed the fight for civil rights in America.Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedAfter that is the oldest saloon in the US, the Horse You Came In On Saloon. In addition to having some serious character of its own, this was also a beloved drinking spot of Edgar Allan Poe... and his ghost supposedly still frequents the joint!Federal Hill Park
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe route heads into Fells Point next, probably the hippest neighborhood in all of Baltimore, and also one of the oldest.Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThis fort, built to defend Baltimore’s precious harbor, took the brunt of the naval assault in 1814. As 19 British warships approached, Major George Armistead told his 1,000 defenders to prepare for the fight of their lives. No sooner had the men taken their positions than the bombardment began. Cannons roared and sent cannonballs crashing into the fort. Luckily, the fort had recently been reinforced, and the cannonfire did little to damage it.Star-Spangled Banner Flag House
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedFrancis Scott Key was so moved by the sight of the American flag flying over Fort McHenry that he scribbled a poem on the back of a letter he had kept in his pocket. This poem would later become the national anthem. Here is the original text of that poem, just as Key wrote it on that fateful morning:Port Discovery Children's Museum
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThen you'll pass Douglass Place, home to several homes built by Frederick Douglass. Here, you'll hear the rest of Douglass's riveting story, including how he went from an enslaved shipwright to one of the most important figures in American politics.Site of Edgar Allan Poe's Death
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedLet’s return to Edgar Allan Poe. See that big brick hospital off to your right? That’s Church Home and Hospital, the site where Poe drew his last breath. Poe’s death remains mysterious to this day, but here’s what we know about it: In September of 1849, Poe boarded a train in Richmond bound for Philadelphia. He was supposed to meet a poet in Philadelphia to do some editing work, but he never showed up. For some reason, he never made it to Philadelphia at all, and nobody knew his whereabouts for the next week.Mother Seton House
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedOff to the right here, a little way down North Paca Street is the Mother Seton House. It’s most famous for being the temporary residence of Elizabeth Ann Seton, the first American-born person to ever be canonized as a saint. Seton was born in New York City in 1774 to an Episcopalian family and lived there for most of her youth. When her husband fell gravely ill with tuberculosis, however, she moved with him to Italy’s warmer climate for his health. It proved to be a fateful decision because it was in Italy that Seton discovered Catholicism. Her husband died shortly after the move, and she dedicated herself to her newfound religion.The Walters Art Museum
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedBaltimore City Hall is next, and it's pretty hard to miss! You'll definitely want to snap a few photos of this regal, Napoleonic structure.Mount Clare Museum House
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedBeyond that is Baltimore's Washington Monument. This pillar might look familiar, because it was designed by the very same architect behind DC's iconic Washington Monument.B&O Railroad Museum
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedAfter that is Edgar Allan Poe's grave, which has for decades been the site of a strange ritual conducted by a mysterious individual whose identity has never been determined. Learn all about the enigmatic Poe Toaster here!Oriole Park at Camden Yards
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedEven if you're not in town for a game, you'll certainly want to stop by Oriole Park, where countless baseball greats have made their names.Maryland Science Center
5 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedMore educational activities can be found at the Maryland Science Center, one of the oldest scientific institutions in the country.
