This
is
a
really
special
place
in
Baltimore.
It
encompasses
a
museum
and
historic
house
with
the
history
of
the
making
of
the
flag
itself
(self
guided
tour)
and
goes
really
well
with
a
visit
to
Fort
McHenry!
You
start
the
visit
with
a
video
which
shows
the
history
and
events
around
the
flag
and
also
how
it
came
to
be
commissioned.
Following
this,
there's
a
small
museum
which
looks
at
the
house
and
its
inhabitants
and
their
lives
as
well
the
flag
itself
and
its
history
through
the
years
(it
really
is
incredible
how
well
it
was
looked
after!).
Finally,
you
get
to
see
inside
the
house.
There's
a
cell
phone
tour
which
you
dial
in
on
or
else
there
is
a
paper
version
of
the
tour
too
with
numbered
stops.
Both
times
I've
visited,
I've
been
the
only
person
there
and
it's
nice
to
be
able
to
take
your
time
and
really
look
at
the
rooms
and
artefacts
without
being
rushed
on!
There's
a
small
gift
shop
and
the
lady
on
the
desk
is
really
lovely
and
very
friendly-
well
worth
a
visit!
I'd
recommend
just
checking
the
opening
hours
before
you
sit
as
it's
not
open
daily
and
does
close
a
little
earlier
too
than
other
attractions.
