Francis Scott Key Memorial
4.3 (151)park
4.3 (151)Tucked along the Georgetown waterfront, this shaded park honors the national anthem's author just off the river trails.
Description
Maintained by the National Park Service, the grounds center on a bust of Key set within a small landscaped plaza, close to where the lawyer's home stood before the area was redeveloped. Walkways provide direct access to the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway trail systems, making the peaceful green space a frequent resting spot for walkers and cyclists moving along the waterfront.
