American Visionary Art Museum

Looking for an afternoon of quirk and charm? We’ve got you covered. While you can walk to the American Visionary Art Museum, we suggest a quick uber ride around the Inner Harbor instead. AVAM specializes in original thematic exhibitions that seamlessly combine art, science, philosophy, and humor! Don’t forget to stop by their fun gift shop to pick up a memento to remember your trip.

Rusty Scupper

Just finished at AVAM? Hop across the street to the Rusty Scupper for a delicious seafood spectacular! Located above the Inner Harbor Marina in a dramatic, free-standing building, the Rusty Scupper is three levels above the water and can boast a beautiful view from every table! This seafood restaurant and bar serves lunch, dinner, and Sunday live-jazz brunch. The deck with outdoor patio provides sweeping views of Harborplace, the Inner Harbor, and Fells Point! We recommend the jumbo lump crab cakes. Maryland does it best, hon!

Historic Ships in Baltimore

Interested in learning something new? Take a step back into naval history and experience one of the most impressive collections of military vessels in the world! The Historic Ships collection includes four historic boats and a unique 1856 lighthouse. The collection showcases the USS Constellation, USCG Cutter 37, LV116 Chesapeake, USS Torsk, and the Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse.

FUN FACTS:

  • The USS Constellation is the last sail-only warship designed and built by the United States Navy in 1854!
  • Built in the mid 1930s, Cutter 37 was designed for law enforcement missions, search and rescue, and maritime patrol.
  • LV116 Chesapeake’s main duties consisted of patrolling, inspecting, and guiding maritime traffic at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay starting from its completion in 1930.
  • Commissioned for the United States Navy on December 16, 1944, the USS Torsk was the only submarine out of its Tench Class fleet of ten to see service during World War II!
