Historic Ships in Baltimore represent one of the most impressive collections of military vessels in the world. Located within easy walking distance of each other, the US Sloop-of-War Constellation, the US Submarine Torsk, the US Coast Guard Cutter WHEC-37 and the Lightship Chesapeake exhibit life at sea from the mid-19th century to the mid-1980's. Also included in the collection is the Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse which marked the entrance to the Patapsco River and Baltimore Harbor for over 130 years.The ships are here for all to learn from and enjoy! The ships can't remain afloat without your support so we hope that you will consider becoming a member or making a donation to help us in our efforts to maintain the collection for future generations.
