U.S.S. Constitution Old Ironsides

Pier 1 Charlestown Navy Yard Boston, MA 02129-1797 +1 617 242 7511/ Ship Flag Flying: +1 617 242 2029 / Special Events: +1 617 242 2543 http://www.ussconstitution.navy.mil/

Launched in 1797, "Old Ironsides" sailed her way into the history books by taking on the British fleet in the War of 1812. She fought in 40 naval battles, and never lost. The vessel received her unusual nickname after French cannonballs bounced off her sides during an 1815 military engagement. Still seaworthy, the ship is the oldest commissioned warship in the world. Free admission and tours, conducted by U.S. Navy personnel offer a look back in time. An adjacent museum features interactive exhibits. Visitors will undergo security checks before boarding.
