  City of Frederick

  Designated as one of America's "Dozen Distinct Destinations" by
  the National Trust for Historic Preservation in 2002, thousands
  flock to Frederick's 50-block historic district every week to take
  in its breathtaking 18th- and 19th-century architecture, its famous
  clustered spires, specialty shops, restaurants, and cultural arts
  offerings. Downtown Frederick boasts fine restaurants, galleries,
  antique shops and more than its share of Revolutionary and Civil
  War ghosts.
  Settled in 1745, the National Pike opened this city to trade
  both east and west in the early 1800s. Railroad and canal
  connections boosted the economy a few decades later. During the
  Civil War, the area was crossed several times by troop movements.
  With a large National Register Historic District encompassing the
  downtown, a plethora of 19th- and early 20th-century historic
  buildings can be visited on numerous walking tours. A famous view
  of clustered church spires is representative of the many historic
  churches located in this vicinity.
  Many places in Frederick have a story to tell. Abraham Lincoln
  spent the night at the Ramsey House and spoke to Frederick citizens
  at the B&O Railroad Station. The John Hanson House was the home
  of the man who was, in 1781, President of the United States under
  the Articles of Confederation. Visit the Barbara Fritchie House,
  reconstructed in honor of the woman immortalized by poet John
  Greenleaf Whittier for standing up to Confederate General Stonewall
  Jackson. She is buried in the Mount Olivet Cemetery where the
  American flag flies continuously over the Francis Scott Key
  Monument, burial site of the author of the "Star-Spangled
  Banner" who spent much of his life in Frederick County. Other
  important sites to visit include the National Museum of Civil War
  Medicine, the Frederick County Courthouse, and Courthouse Square,
  which is lined by stately Federal-style homes. Throughout the town
  are several historic churches, including the Evangelical Lutheran
  Church, Frederick Academy of the Visitation Convent, Trinity
  Chapel, The Evangelical Reformed Church, and Saint John's Catholic
  Church.
