Historic St. Mary’s City, based in Saint Marys City, Maryland, encompasses an 800-acre landscape that integrates waterways with some of North America’s most well-preserved archaeological remains. It has held National Historic Landmark status since 1969 and functions as an important regional tourism destination in Southern Maryland. The organization supports ongoing archaeological research and preserves material evidence to interpret the history of St. Mary’s City for visitors and scholars. Its on-site exhibits include recreated structures in the town center, notable features such as the Brick Chapel from 1667 and the State House from 1676, a Woodland Indian hamlet, a tall ship, and a tobacco plantation with heritage livestock, complemented by the St. John’s Site Museum that preserves and studies the foundation of a major historic place. In 2025, the institution launched a digital platform focused on St. Mary’s Fort to broaden public access to archaeological discoveries alongside its physical museum offerings.
