This is the only surviving Civil War era Naval vessel. The Civil War was over a hundred years ago, and for a battle ship to survive that long is quite a feat. The USS Constellation has been restored to look as it did when these ships redefined the drama of the high seas. In fact, it was because of this ambiguity that the first bloodshed of the Civil War occurred in Baltimore. One never can be sure.
Tours are thorough but quick and interesting.
