Description

This city on the Chesapeake embodies the American spirit of defiance and strength while also living up to its nickname "The Charm City". First, we'll learn about Baltimore's most famous resident, the always mysterious Edgar Allan Poe at his home in the city. The Raven, one of Poe's most famous poems, has become a symbol for Baltimore to this day. Then we'll head to the Geppi Entertainment museum which has thousands of pop culture collectibles in their one-of-a-kind collection including mint condition comics, posters and toys. Then, we'll crack the code at the National Cryptologic museum and learn about the history of making and breaking secret communications. Touch the complex machines that helped the allies decipher German codes in WWII. Finally we'll learn where the epic battle of Baltimore took place, the conflict that saved the city from British Invasion at Fort McHenry.
