Description
The USS Constellation is the last of the sail only vessels designed by the United States Navy. Built in 1854, replacing its 1797 namesake, the Constellation is the last intact naval vessel from the Civil War, where it served as the flagship of the African Squadron (disrupting African slave trade). Decommissioned in 1933 and docked in Baltimore since 1955, the Constellation is a fixture in the scenic Inner Harbor. Stepping on deck, visitors experience the rich heritage f the US Navy.
