American Visionary Art Museum

A one-of-a-kind museum of "outsider art." Don't miss the fabulous mosaics outside and the offbeat gift shop.

National Aquarium

This is in the Inner Harbor, where you will also find paddle boats and historic ships.

Baltimore Museum of Art

Lots of great art, including a world-class collection of paintings by Matisse. Nestled next to Johns Hopkins University.

Maryland Zoo in Druid Hill Park

It's a zoo! In the middle of a giant park! Great place to take kids.

Rawlings Conservatory

Located in Druid Hill Park. Enjoy the gardens outside and the large variety of plants in the greenhouses.

The Walters Art Museum

An excellent art museum, in the beautiful Mount Vernon neighborhood.

Mount Vernon

Baltimore's swishiest neighborhood, with multiple cultural attractions. Visit the gorgeous Peabody Library (photo above), climb the original Washington Monument, and more.

The Jewish Museum of Maryland

The museum is adjacent to the 3rd oldest synagogue in the U.S. It's rapidly modernizing its curatorial perspective, so always interesting to see what's showing.

Baltimore Museum of Industry

Great exhibits if you want to learn nitty-gritty Baltimore history, and how things are made.

The Peale

The Peale was the first purpose-built museum in the U.S. It has also been used as Baltimore's City Hall, Baltimore's first public school for Black children, and plenty more. Recently renovated, the shows are eclectic and the space delightful. It's not large.

Cylburn Arboretum

If the weather's nice, take a stroll or a hike at Cylburn Arboretum. Gardens to view, woodsy mini-hikes to enjoy.

Ladew Topiary Gardens

North of the city, this is an absolutely beautiful place. Garden after carefully designed garden, plus a native butterfly house. Lots of topiary, and lots that's not topiary.

Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine

Toronto's got Fort Henry. Baltimore's got Fort McHenry. Both active during what we call the War of 1812. The interpretation is an interesting mix of pious patriotism and more careful analysis.

Star Spangled Banner Flag House

One of those step-back-in-time museums, and also relevant to the U.S. narrative around the War of 1812. A visit here inspired Rivkah's 10-year-old (?) birthday party, complete with dress-up, a mob cap craft, and the sugared nuts we were given.
