Baltimore

Baltimore sits on the tidal Patapsco River in Maryland, United States, where the Inner Harbor marks the city’s historic waterfront. The river flows into Chesapeake Bay, placing Baltimore within one of the Atlantic coast’s major estuarine systems. At Fort McHenry, the 1814 Battle of Baltimore inspired Francis Scott Key’s poem that became the U.S. national anthem. The brick streets of Fells Point recall the port’s maritime and immigrant past, while the National Aquarium anchors the redeveloped harbor district. Baltimore’s character combines working-waterfront roots, major museums and neighborhoods shaped by successive communities.
