Intersection of Main & Francis Streets Downtown Annapolis

welcome TO ANNAPOLIS & ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY! If you’re in the mood to get away to it all, you’ve come to the right place! Whether you’re looking for the adrenaline rush of crossing the ﬁnish line ﬁrst in our Wednesday Night Sailboat Races, the cool serenity of an 8-acre woodland garden, or easy access to Baltimore and Washington, DC, we deliver. A destination of contrasts, our three regions have distinct, appealing personalities. Maryland’s capital city greets you with open arms and a host of possibilities. A Museum without Walls, Annapolis is a lively, upbeat, contemporary city where four centuries of architecture embrace 21st-century living. Here all roads lead to the water and a nautical heritage intrinsically linked to the Chesapeake Bay. While Annapolis is world-renowned as America’s Sailing Capital, the Annapolis countryside boasts hundreds of miles of Chesapeake Bay shoreline. Here, the rhythm of life moves with the tides

and the seasons, and maritime villages including Deale, Galesville, Shady Side and Mayo invite you to escape to a simpler time. Nearby, Historic London Town and Gardens presents nature at its ﬁnest. Home to BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport, the BWI-Arundel Mills region is the perfect home base for exploring Washington, DC and Baltimore. Here, you can peek behind the curtain into the world of secret codes at the National Security Agency’s National Cryptologic Museum. The nearby Arundel Mills Mall is Maryland’s largest outlet and value retail shopping destination. Right next door, Live! Casino & Hotel is one of the largest commercial casinos in the country. Not sure where to begin? This guide is designed to help you create the experience that’s just right for you!

AN N A POLIS C IT Y U.S. Naval Academy

ABOUT A walk along our brick-lined streets puts you in touch with four centuries of architecture lovingly preserved. Look in any direction and you’ll find something to catch your eye–the Chesapeake Bay, sailing regattas, midshipmen in dress whites, historic landmarks, colonial guides. And that’s just for starters! Founded as Anne Arundel Town in 1649, Annapolis became the capital of Maryland in 1695 and the nation’s first peacetime capital in 1783. Today, Annapolis boasts more 18th-century brick buildings than any city of comparable size in the country and the oldest State House in continuous legislative use in the nation. It was here that George Washington resigned his commission as commander-in-chief of the Continental Army in 1783 and the Continental Congress ratified the Treaty of Paris, officially ending the Revolutionary War.

Pinkney Street Downtown Annapolis

VISITANNAPOLIS.ORG

Want to be where the action is? Head to City Dock. It’s the heart and soul of Annapolis, a place to see and be seen. After a cruise or sail out of Annapolis Harbor, check out our boutiques and specialty shops. They make it easy to take home a memory of your stay. In historic downtown Annapolis, Maryland Avenue, State Circle, Main and West Streets have earned worldwide reputations as shopping hot spots. How about a handbag from Hobo’s ﬂagship store just off Main Street or a painting lovingly created at one of our nearly

two dozen downtown galleries? If pottery is your passion, choose from one-of-a-kind pieces crafted at Annapolis Pottery. Looking for big name department stores? Westﬁeld Annapolis Mall, Annapolis Harbour Center, and the Annapolis Towne Centre at Parole offer a host of shopping possibilities. In the dining department, downtown Annapolis offers everything from simple to sublime–from fresh from the Bay seafood to ethnic favorites that span the globe.

DON’T MISS Take a guided tour of the U.S. Naval Academy (121 Blake Road, Annapolis, MD). It will open your eyes to the daily routine of the 4,400-strong Brigade of Midshipmen. When the formal tour is through, be sure to visit the Naval Academy Museum (118 Maryland Avenue, Annapolis, MD), home of the famous Gallery of Ships. If you’re a history lover, don’t miss the Maryland State House and its Old Senate Chamber (100 State Circle, Annapolis, MD). Want to experience Annapolis like a local? Enjoy homemade ice cream while watching boats strut their stuff at Ego Alley. Tour the last remaining screwpile lighthouse in its original location on the Chesapeake Bay. Enjoy a free summer evening concert at City Dock. Spend an afternoon shopping and dining along Maryland Avenue. Learn about life in colonial Annapolis by touring the home and reconstructed

18th-century pleasure garden of Declaration of Independence signer William Paca (186 Prince George Street, Annapolis, MD). Feast your eyes on the Most Beautiful Doorway in America at the HammondHarwood House (19 Maryland Avenue, Annapolis, MD). Interested in African American heritage? Check out the Deep Roots, Rising Waters exhibit at the Banneker-Douglass Museum (84 Franklin Street, Annapolis, MD) It documents African American history in Maryland from 1633 to the present day. No visit to Annapolis is complete without multiple treks to the Maritime Republic of Eastport! In true locals’ fashion, the best way to get to the quirky neighborhood is aboard a water taxi from City Dock. Once there, be sure to visit the Annapolis Maritime Museum (723 Second Street, Annapolis, MD). Located in the last remaining oyster packing plant in the area, the newly revamped, high-tech, high-touch museum plans to begin offering heritage tours of the Back Creek and beyond aboard the skipjack, Wilma Lee.

WHERE TO EAT There’s no denying it. Great vacations begin with great food! You name the dining experience; you’ll find it here. From fresh-fromthe-Bay seafood to the choicest

steaks, to the finest international cuisine, Annapolis restaurants will send you home with some serious bragging rights! Owned and operated by Belgian chef Frederik De Pue, Flamant (17 Annapolis Street, Annapolis, MD) offers choice, fresh food rooted in the classic style of European cuisine. Now in its 36th year, Carrol’s Creek Café (410 Severn Avenue, Annapolis, MD) has gone totally nut-free. Galway Bay Restaurant, Pub and Whiskey Bar (63 Maryland Avenue, Annapolis, MD) snagged Irish Hospitality Global’s 2019 award for Best Irish Whiskey Experience in the United States. With its “all killer, no filler” crab cakes, Boatyard Bar & Grill (400 Fourth Street, Annapolis, MD) is still the best place for watching weekly replays of the Wednesday Night Sailboat Races. While you’re there, treat yourself to a piece of Smith Island Cake, Maryland’s official dessert.

WHERE TO STAY If you want to be in the heart of the action, Annapolis is the place to stay. A host of accommodations ranging from bed and breakfasts to historic inns, to modern luxury hotels and limited service properties puts you within walking distance of City Dock and its sailing and cruising delights. You’ll find a complete listing of possibilities in the lodging section of this Visitors Guide and on our VisitAnnapolis.org website.

A NNAPOLI S LI BRA RY Looking for a new place to hang out? How about the Annapolis Library! Slated to open in April 2020, the 32,500 square foot, $24 million library at 1410 West Street is designed with gatherings in mind. It will have two community meeting rooms, a teen space and a children’s area. The largest meeting room will accommodate up to 500 people and can be divided in half for smaller events. There will also be a small conference room and six enclosed collaboration spaces, each containing a table and six chairs. Replacing the former 20,000 square foot, 50-year-old Annapolis library, the new building represents a renaissance in the library system. Twenty years ago, individuals used libraries differently. They’d go for story time or to check out a book. The new Annapolis library invites you to come and stay–and use the space like a community center. Rather than

being a refuge for quiet reflection, it will be a place to come and “be loud” through participation in a host of programs, including concerts. To serve the needs of the community during the Annapolis library rebuild, the Anne Arundel County Public Library began leasing space for a Discoveries library at Westfield Annapolis Mall in April 2018. Its program attendance regularly surpassed those of the county’s 15 other library branches. Because the location was so successful, the county moved the Discoveries library from a 3,000-square-foot location to a 12,000-square-foot space in the Crate and Barrell wing of the mall in February 2020. So, if your stay in Annapolis includes a visit to Westfield, you can kill two birds with one stone by combining your shopping with a trip to the Discoveries.

Its all-lump Maryland crab, baseball-size crab cakes are shipped all over the world. The new Ashling Kitchen and Bar (1286 Route 3 South, Suite 3, Crofton, MD) is another great find. Owner Elise Letavish worked for more than a decade in the music industry where she traveled the world and worked with some of the best artists in the country.

During that time, she learned the value of creating community and a sense of home around “a good meal and a stiff drink.” On a quest to do just that, the robust Ashling menu includes a variety of tastefully prepared seafood dishes in a musically inspired atmosphere.

I got motion sickness in the taxi so we ended up having to walk in the rain, but he stopped and bought me flowers at every corner shop we ducked into for shelter. Looking up at him under a phone booth for cover, soaking wet with an arm full of flowers, I knew he was the one. Now, I know he’s the one our son will look up to in the rain or shine. “

Founded in 1845, the Naval Academy has grown to become a renowned institution of learning and historical relevance that trains some 4,200-plus midshipmen annually to become professional officers in the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. Aptly located in beautiful historic Annapolis, where the Severn River meets the Chesapeake Bay, the Naval Academy is a welcoming location for the young men and women chosen as midshipmen—and for the more than one million tourists who visit the institution from around the world each year.

THE NAVAL ACADEMY CHAPEL IS WORTH A PEEK, EVEN IF YOU DON’T PLAN TO WORSHIP OR MARRY THERE.

The Naval Academy Chapel, with its iconic copper dome and giant brass doors, is a beloved beacon not only to those afﬁliated with the Naval Academy, but for all familiar with this integral element of the spectacular Annapolis skyline. Of note: Peter Marshall, pastor and future Chaplain to the US Senate, spoke from the Chapel’s original pulpit on Sunday December 7th, 1941, mere hours before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

THE REMAINS OF A FAMOUS NAVAL HERO ARE INTERRED IN THE NAVAL ACADEMY CHAPEL.

Here’s the back story: After an illustrious naval career, Commodore John Paul Jones, naval leader of the American Revolution, died alone in a Paris apartment in 1792 at the age of 45. He eventually received both proper recognition and a resting place at the Naval Academy, but not until over a century later. In 1905, after Jones’ remains were discovered—almost perfectly preserved in a tightly sealed lead casket—Paris honored him with a parade and religious service. Afterwards, his remains were brought to Annapolis and, in 1913, moved to their current resting spot: the crypt under the Naval Academy Chapel. The crypt’s elaborate Beaux Arts design includes a 21-ton sarcophagus. At the base of the tomb, you’ll ﬁnd the Continental Navy ships Jones commanded during the American Revolution.

THROUGHOUT THE YARD, YOU’LL GLIMPSE TIMELESS NAVAL ACADEMY TRADITIONS.

There’s nothing quite like seeing 4,000plus midshipmen standing at attention in their uniforms. This happens at noon formation, an impressive display in which all midshipmen gather in front of Bancroft Hall before lunch before ﬁling inside meticulously to the beat of a drum (Monday through Friday, weather permitting, during the Academic year). Much messier is the annual Climb of Herndon Monument. With the monument slathered in lard, Naval Academy freshmen ﬁght their way to the top to mark the end of the academic year as plebes.

NAVY SPORTING EVENTS ARE SPIRITED, FAMILYFRIENDLY AFFAIRS.

A home Navy football game is like no other college sporting event. Held at the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, these games involve the entire midshipmen brigade: from the ‘March On’ in which every midshipman files onto the field just before kickoff, as planes fly overhead, to the cannon blast at every kickoff and Navy score, to the ever-present Navy mascot, Bill the Goat, to the spectacle of midshipmen rushing the field whenever Navy scores, to do as many pushups as there are numbers on the score board, to the singing of the Navy Blue & Gold Song at the finale of the game. It is a one-of-a-kind treasure to be enjoyed with the entire family.

sights to see Maryland State House

SETTLEMENT In 1650, Puritans seeking religious freedom nestled into a spot on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay and called their new town Providence. Settlers soon spread across the Severn River to the land that now makes up Maryland’s capital city. The small settlement grew and was renamed Anne Arundell in 1694 in honor of Lord Baltimore’s wife. By the late 1600s, Maryland’s 25,000 inhabitants had spread from Maryland’s then capital, St. Mary’s City, and Governor Francis Nicholson chose the growing town on the Severn as the new provincial capital because of its central location. Nicholson renamed the new capital Annapolis in honor of Princess Anne, who became Queen of England in 1702. He directed the city be built according to an elaborate baroque street plan, much like the ones used in great European capitals. The highest town circle revolved around the capitol building. The focal point of the secondhighest circle was an Anglican church. Mixed residential and mercantile areas developed around the waterfront and along the main streets. VISITANNAPOLIS.ORG
