Flag Talk

Park Event · Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine · Jun 8, 2026 – Sep 30, 2026 · 1:15 PM–1:45 PM

The American flag is a major national symbol today, in part, because of the events that occurred at Fort McHenry.

Join rangers for this daily program as they talk about the design of the Star-Spangled Banner flag, its relationship to the park, and how we view it today.
