The 1793 home of Mary Pickersgill, who sewed the enormous garrison flag that flew over Fort McHenry and inspired the national anthem. The restored house and adjoining museum bring the War of 1812 and the flag's making to life, and it pairs perfectly with a Fort McHenry visit. It's compact, so budget under an hour, and the guided-tour format means timing matters.
