    From the moment you step into the Hessian Barracks, you are catapolted into another time. The barracks is preserved with the greatest care. Every inch is a picture of what the building would have looked like in the eighteenth century. I was suprised to learned that the building was used for more than a sleeping post for troops. There is a vast ...

  • Great experience
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/25/06
    The Hessian barracks was build in 1781. These stunning buildings were build of stone and served as military establishments in the Revolutionary War. The cannon outside the buildings portray a vicarious experience of the War. I recommend spending an afternoon here to experience the wonderful sites of the campus. The Hessian barracks is now located at the Maryland School for the Deaf. And is easily excessable off Maryland 355.

  • What a place to visit!
    By Ryan, 04/24/06
    The Hessian Barricks in Frederick, Maryland is a very unique and interesting site to visit. Not only is it very interesting to look at, but it is very significant to the history of Frederick. The canon in front of the barricks was used to let everyone in Frederick County know that the Revolutionary War had ended. It is a very cool place to visit. FIVE *STARS*

    Trimmed for the holiday, the Barracks offered several interesting activities. A jolly lady named Sally treated us with fine Old World cooking. Yummy--she told us some great stories and ...

  • Must-See Historic Landmark
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/28/05
    The Hessian Barracks located on the campus of the Maryland School for the Deaf at 101 Clarke Place in Frederick, Maryland, represents the finest example of colonial miltary architecture in North America. When completed in 1781, these twin limestone buildings made up the largest masonary structures then in military use on the entire continent.
