Rising Sun Inn History Tour

From our 18th century Tap Room, complete with original built-in cupboards to hold the Tavern's keg and tankards, to the beautiful pie safe, to a wonderful doll house replica of the historic Jonas Green House in Annapolis, a guided tour of the Rising Sun Inn allows you to step back in time and consider a slice of colonial life in America. 

See the newly restored 1753 section of the second floor.  Docents will happily share their knowledge of the Inn and answer questions on your tour, helping you understand all that the Inn has done to enrich our past and inform our present.
​
Original wood flooring from 1753, beautiful 18th and 19th century furniture, even a fragment of homespun cloth found in the original walls, all help to illustrate the lives of an American Patriot, Henry Baldwin, his family and compatriots during the Revolutionary War. Make history come alive with this unique tour!
