The USS Constitution also know as "Old Ironsides," is docked in the Charlestown Navy Yard. It is the oldest commissioned warship still afloat in the world.

Be sure to visit The USS Constitution Museum, located steps away. Visitors can participate in a number of hands on interactive activities as they learn more about Old Ironsides history. Swing in a hammock, raise a sail or fire a cannon. Kids will love this and might even learn something. Admission is free - Donations accepted at the door.
