Explore History at Fort McHenry
Step back in time at Fort McHenry in Baltimore, where Francis Scott Key penned The Star-Spangled Banner during the War of 1812.
This historic site offers ranger-led tours, cannon firings (summer Saturdays at noon!), and stunning views of the Patapsco River. Perfect for history buffs and families, it’s a great way to connect with Maryland’s rich past. Pair your visit with a trip to nearby Fells Point for crab cakes and cobblestone charm.
