Where the Star-Spangled Banner was born: a compact fort with sweeping harbor views and living history. It’s an easy win—flat paths, open lawns, and a visitor film that sets the scene in under 15 minutes.

Start at the visitor center for your map, then follow the ramp to the east wall for the best harbor vantage. Time your visit for a flag raising or lowering—the ranger talk turns the place into a story you’ll remember.

For a slower visit, circle the star-shaped ramparts clockwise and watch ships move in and out of the Patapsco.

The Delta Flight Museum charts the evolution of aviation inside two 1940s-era hangars, where Delta’s history unfolds through rare aircraft, interactive exhibits, and immersive experiences. Founded in 1995 on Delta’s original headquarters, the museum showcases restored planes, including a Douglas DC-3, a Convair 880 jet, and the Spirit of Delta, the airline’s first employee-purchased Boeing 767.

Visitors can step aboard a full-size Boeing 747, exploring its cockpit and upper deck, or test their skills in a flight simulator used for real pilot training. Historic artifacts, vintage uniforms, and airline memorabilia bring Delta’s century-long journey to life, illustrating its transformation from a small crop-dusting company into a global carrier.
