​Please step inside and have a look around to learn more about visitors, just like you, who have been stopping by since 1753.

The Rising Sun Inn has been a farmhouse, an Inn and Tavern, a Stagecoach stop, and an important meeting place on the crossroads of American History. Located in central Anne Arundel County, Maryland, on the Washington Rochambeau Revolutionary Route, the Rising Sun Inn is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 

Whether you are retracing the steps of American patriots, a family ancestry fan, a teacher with a history lesson in the making, a lover of ghost stories, or a student of 18th and 19th century Americana, we are worth a visit. 

​
​The Rising Sun Inn is open for visits the Second Sunday
of each month, between 1 and 4 p.m., 
enabling you to explore your interests with us.

Our docents are eager to share their knowledge
​with you about our Inn and her history and our resident ghosts, Randolph and Abigail, may even leave a cookie or two out for you. 

​Museum Guest fees: $5.00 per person.
​
Please, do come in!

Time to Tee up some Thank you's!!

The 2nd Annual Friends of the Rising Sun Inn Charity Golf Tournament was a wildly successful event.  Thank you to the individuals and businesses who generously supported our tournament as well as the wounded war veterans of the Salute Military Golf Association.  The weather was beautiful, and the course was great!  A good time was had by all attendees.

Check out our Golf Tournament page for a list of all our sponsors and to view event pictures.

Thank you again, and we'll see you next year!
