Situated in the city's National Historical Park, both the USS Constitution and Charlestown Navy Yard offer a fantastic insight into the history of Boston. The famed USS Constitution was first built at the end of 18th century under the presidency of George Washington, as one of a fleet of six ships to help protect the America's maritime trade. Visitors can learn about the ships history in the nearby museum and through the guided tours. Take a stroll around the entire Charlestown Navy Yard too and you can explore the shipping heritage of Boston, taking in what remains over the 30 acres.
