Star Spangled Banner Flag House, Baltimore

The Star-Spangled Banner Flag House is a museum located in downtown Baltimore. Built in 1793, it was the home of Mary Young Pickersgill, who later sewed the "Star Spangled Banner," the huge out-sized garrison flag that flew over Fort McHenry during the British Royal Navy attack in the Battle of Baltimore during the War of 1812.

The museum contains furniture and antiques from the Federal period as well as items from the Pickersgill family. A supplemental 12,600-square-foot museum was constructed to the rear next to Pickersgill's home. This museum houses exhibits on the War of 1812 and the Battle of Baltimore, featuring a 30 by 42-foot tall window created to be the same color, size, and design of the original "Star-Spangled Banner" flag made by Pickersgill in the adjacent Flag House.
