The sight of the Washington Monument towering over Old Baltimore marks just the beginning of the rich history entrenched in Mount Vernon and the early 18th century street it’s built upon.

Extending from the neighborhoods of Towson’s Rodgers Forge to downtown Baltimore’s Federal Hill, Charles Street has a myriad of museums, galleries, theatres and centuries old churches to explore. Immerse yourself in attractions like the world-renowned Walters Art Museum, get swept by the melodies of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, or tour the Basilica of the Assumption- America’s first cathedral.

To know our city is to know our street, so come and experience the art and culture of historic Charles Street.

Constructed from 1806-1821, this Catholic cathedral was the first built in the nation.
