We went in mainly to find the only bathroom around but it was full of interesting things to see. There were models of the ship, even one made of Legos in the kids section. We spent about an hour inside since it was much cooler than outside. They have a large gift shop but I wanted to find a historical book about the ship for kids but nothing but a novel sized edition.

Very cool site to see along the Freedom Trail. You can go above and below deck which is very interesting. Kids will enjoy clambering on things for sure.

One of the most important historical museums in the country. The Constitution is the oldest commissioned naval vessel in the world. The crew are your average 19 year old idiots who join the military, and they give the tours, but it really is a "hands on" museum. You are free to touch and explore as you descend the decks. The museum has fantastic pieces that rotate over the months and years, so it does offer opportunity to see it again and again.

A great place to visit and see some history up close and personal! The pictures don’t tell the whole story but the young Sailor who provided our tour certainly did! If you have time in Boston, take a tour - they’re free! And educational about our country, our navy and our history.

November 1 – March 31 Open Daily | 10:00 – 5:00 April 1 – October 31 Open Daily | 9:00 – 6:00 The Museum is closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day. Early 2:00 p.m. closure on Sunday, December 24th.
Parking on the official property is not allowed. But just outside of the security guard station there is city parking. Parking in the Navy Yard area is allowed and aggressively enforced by Boston Parking officials. Please read all of the local street parking signs. You are allowed up to 2 hours on one meter. Re-feeding the meter with your money beyond 2 hours is not allowed and you will get a ticket if you stay longer than 2 hours. The idea there was to give other people a chance to visit the Constitution as well. There are a handful of free spaces but they are also 2 hours. The closest garage is at: Nautica Parking Garage, it is the closest one to the exact location. The address is: 88 Constitution Road, Charlestown, MA 02129. The rate is $21.00 for around 2 hours. But go into the Gift Shop to get your ticket stamped and validated and then you will only pay just $10.00. This is based on up to a 2 hour visit. But they have other parking discounts if you stay longer. Have fun!
I built a model back in 1977 to 1983. All was left was the sails. Never finished. The build plans are possibly available through the navy since it's a still commissioned vessel.
The museum is free. I'm not sure about your other questions 😁
It is open...funded by donations
You can enter for free but there is a suggested donation you should give if you are able
Nautica Garage 88 Constitution Road is the closest - although public transportation or Uber is way easier.
Free to see the USS Constitution ship. Museum is $10 suggested donation
Yes 365 day's a year... And it's free to the public... Just give a donation... Please 😃
It will leave at 10:00 a.m. ET. More information is available here: https://ussconstitutionmuseum.org/events/celebrate-july-4th/
The active-duty crew fire a salute from USS Constitution twice per day. The first time is at 8:00 am and the second is at sunset. This ceremony, called morning or evening colors, can be observed every day in the Charlestown Navy Yard.
We actually can't offer monetary appraisals. Try https://www.appraisers.org/ or https://www.appraisersassociation.org/.
I'm not sure about the schedule but I believe the ship is sailed 2 times per month.
If you just want to see the museum you dont need a photo ID but if you want to go on the ship you will need a photo ID.
You don't have to have a reservation if it's during normal hours. If it's after normal hours, I would say to call the park board.
There are several parking garages near the USS Constitution Museum, including the Nautica Parking Garage, Constitution Center, and Flagship Wharf Garage. Discounted parking with a validation stamp from the Museum is available for the Nautica Parking Garage.
Yes, it's free. The museum asked for a donation. The ship was recently renovated and has now reopened to the public.
There are a few different phone numbers that can be used to contact USS Constitution (the Ship) depending on your reason for contacting them. The phone numbers for each division can be found on their website at: https://www.navy.mil/local/constitution/contact_us.asp. For those interested in the Museum, which is operated separately from the USS Constitution (the Ship), the phone number is 617-426-1812.
The Museum is closed on New Year's Day, Christmas, and Thanksgiving. The Ship, which is operated separately by the United States Navy, is closed to the public on Mondays and Tuesdays during the winter and on Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year's Day. For more information on planning a trip to the Museum and Ship, visit https://ussconstitutionmuseum.org/visit/plan/.
There is a restraunt on the grounds adjacent to the ship and many others within 10 minute walk
Free, no ticket or entry fee to museum or onto the ships, you do need to have valid ID. Donate what you want.
Not at the museum specifically but about two blocks away. Dont be duped into parking in the expensive marina lot. The museum one is underground parking.
Probably on line
You can find the form on their facebook page to download.
Artifacts, interactive displays and history of the USS Constitution. We're Aussies and found it extremely interesting. Again, another excellent site maintained and staffed by your National Parks employees.
