      About

      The USS Constitution Museum sits in the Charlestown Navy Yard next to "Old Ironsides", the oldest commissioned warship still afloat. It has exhibits, interactive displays and artifacts on the ship and its crews, with a pay-what-you-can suggested admission. The ship is a separate, free visit with its own shorter hours and Navy security requirements.

      Getting there

      Boston, MA, 02129

      In the Charlestown Navy Yard. The museum has no street address of its own; the page suggests entering the Nautica Parking Garage, 88 Constitution Road, Boston, MA 02129, into a GPS.

      The pin marks the site itself, not necessarily the entrance (42.37394, -71.05551). Show on our map · Google Maps · Apple Maps
