Avis USS CONSTITUTION Boston

I really enjoyed the history and the effort it takes to maintain its seaworthiness. You need around 30-45mins to go around the shop and read the very brief and interesting information cards.
It's completely free to visit the ship.

Unexpectedly I enjoyed the Museum even more! An average donation for adults is 10-15$. This is a very interactive museum which does a great job of making understanding ship building and running interesting and immersive! Great for children and adults alike!

Good for the little kids

Musée intéressant mais bateau fermé lors de notre visite sans préavis. Du coup, beaucoup moins d'intérêt!!!

We visited this along the freedom trail walk (which I also recommend), an added bonus is that it’s free!!

I did not know I could have learned so much about a US Naval Ship, but I did and it was great. If you are ever in the area check out the museum and then check out the USS Constitution. What a beautiful ship. Old Ironsides, is a three-masted wooden-hulled heavy frigate of the United States Navy and is the world's oldest commissioned naval warship still afloat. Totally worth the time. We took a ferry from Long Wharf, what a fun trip.

My visit to the USS Constitution Museum was an absolutely unforgettable experience that left me in awe of both the ship's storied history and the incredible dedication of those who have preserved it for future generations.

From the moment I stepped foot into the museum, I was transported back in time to an era of adventure, bravery, and naval prowess. The museum's exhibits are meticulously curated, offering a fascinating glimpse into the life and times of the USS Constitution, fondly known as "Old Ironsides."

One of the highlights of my visit was exploring the meticulously reconstructed decks of the ship itself. Walking in the footsteps of sailors who served aboard this legendary vessel, I couldn't help but feel a sense of reverence for the history that surrounded me. From the towering masts to the intricate rigging, every detail served as a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of those who sailed her.

The museum's interactive exhibits further brought the USS Constitution's story to life, allowing visitors to experience firsthand the challenges and triumphs of life at sea. Whether manning the cannons, hoisting the sails, or navigating through treacherous waters, I found myself fully immersed in the excitement and adventure of naval warfare.

But perhaps what impressed me most was the passion and dedication of the museum staff and volunteers. Their knowledge and enthusiasm were infectious, as they shared captivating stories and insights that deepened my appreciation for the ship and its place in history. Their commitment to preserving the legacy of the USS Constitution is truly commendable and made my visit all the more memorable.

My visit to the USS Constitution Museum was an enriching and inspiring experience that left me with a newfound appreciation for America's maritime heritage. Whether you're a history buff, a naval enthusiast, or simply someone looking for an engaging and educational outing, I cannot recommend this museum highly enough. Prepare to be transported on a journey through time aboard one of the most iconic ships in American history – it's an experience you won't soon forget.

Great history museum about revolutionary naval history geared towards kids. The USS Constitution is amazing!

We came here as a family. 2nd floor is more kids friendly. There are many hands-on activities. There is a scavenger hunt you can ask at the front desk. There will be a price if you complete the hunt. Also, the admission fee is free for the military.

This beautiful ship today is a free museum for those who like to know a little more about history. Located in Boston, being one of the points of the famous Freedom Trail.

It is possible to get on the boat and have the feeling of what the travels were like at that time, as well as understanding a little about how it was used during the American War.

USS Constitution, also known as Old Ironsides, is a three-masted wooden-hulled heavy frigate of the United States Navy. It is the world's oldest commissioned naval warship still afloat.

It was launched in 1797, one of six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794 and the third constructed.

The name "Constitution" was among ten names submitted to President George Washington by Secretary of War Timothy Pickering in March of 1795 for the frigates that were to be constructed.

Worst place ever security is hella mean, I asked for my beanie and they didn’t do anything and said that I should just leave, screamed at all the kids for not going “fast enough” (there were 100) all the interactions are hella boring and broken too, plus watch out for the unkown!

Very interesting, we had a fun docent who showed us how they chinked the ship. Donation requested.

Le navire est impressionnant, mais mérite quelques explications pour le replacer dans son contexte et son intérêt ! A voir !

Une occasion unique de monter a bord d'un des plus anciens navires du monde. il est actuellement en restauration (en cale sèche). Le pont et l'intérieur sont magnifiques. passeport indispensable pour y accéder. mais c'est gratuit!!!

Suivre le Freedom Trail pour finir par arriver au pied de l'USS Constitution est le plus ancien navire de guerre commandé à flot dans le monde!
