In partnership with the Naval History and Heritage Command Detachment Boston, our crew has been working hard to restore USS Constitution’s masts as “Old Ironsides” prepares to return to her fully rigged configuration. 

Every line, spar, and sail tells the story of the dedication, craftsmanship, and teamwork required to preserve the world’s oldest commissioned warship afloat. As restoration and rigging efforts continue, visitors have a rare opportunity to witness living history up close and experience the tradition and pride of the United States Navy firsthand.

Whether you are a history enthusiast, a family exploring Boston, or a supporter of America’s maritime heritage, there has never been a better time to visit USS Constitution and see the progress for yourself.

Come explore the ship, meet the crew, and be part of the journey as Old Ironsides prepares for America’s 250th.
