Housed in a former oyster cannery right on the harbor, this museum tells the story of Baltimore as a working city: canning, garment-making, printing, shipbuilding and the immigrant labor behind it all. The recreated workshops and the SS Baltimore steam tug docked outside make it hands-on and refreshingly unpretentious. It's a bit off the tourist track and can feel quiet on weekdays, which locals consider part of the charm.
