Welcometo Historic St. Michaels
The Town that Fooled the British
St. Michaels offers a quiet charm, peaceful haven for a day, weekend or vacation. Stroll the historic streets where lovingly restored homes welcome you to take a step back in time. Historic sites, enchanting Inns, Bed & Breakfasts and Museums give you the feeling of what was once a thriving Colonial village and is now home to many who are a bit resistant to the hustle and bustle of modern life. Just a leisurely drive from Baltimore, Washington and Philadelphia, St. Michaels offers you a quiet escape. While shopping and dining are very popular pastimes, the beautiful Miles River and St. Michaels Harbor offers boaters and sailors and those who just like to be near the water, the perfect destination. For the serious sportsman, excellent fishing and guided hunting make St. Michaels a year-round getaway. Cycling enthusiasts find St. Michaels a must-stop on their itinerary. Many fine restaurants, lovely places to stay and interesting shops add to the ambience, making St. Michaels a visitor’s delight. We hope you’ll join us.

In the dark morning hours of August 10, 1813, the British attacked St. Michaels to destroy their 6 or 7 shipyards. Legend has it, that residents of the town, forewarned, hoisted lanterns to the masts of ships and in the tops of the trees, tricking the British by causing the cannons to overshoot the town. The “blackout” was effective and only one house, now known as “The Cannonball House” was struck. A cannon ball penetrated the roof and rolled down the staircase as Mrs. Merchant carried her young daughter downstairs. The house still exists as a private residence. St. Michaels derived its name from St. Michaels Parish of the Episcopal Church founded in 1696 and from the St. Michaels River, now called the Miles River. James Braddock laid out the town surrounding the church and began selling lots in 1775.
