The museum is very small, but has a wealth of information on how Baltimore and the State of Maryland was affected by the Civil War. The Historic Building was a Train Station and escaping slaves were able to use it reach freedom. If he has the time, be sure to talk to the Museum Manager, speically when he is dress in period clothing as the Station Manager.
