Anyone interested in a key piece of American history should visit Fort McHenry. It has a very good visitor’s center describing the central event — the British attack during the War of 1812 — that spawned the National Anthem. Excellent videos and descriptive exhibits continue in the barracks within the fort. Several interpretive rangers and volunteers, some in period uniform, lead tours and answer questions. Gorgeous views of the Patapsco River from the cannon emplacements. (19.7 miles from our location)
