Located on Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, the Baltimore Museum of Industry is a fun place to visit for adults and families.
Explore galleries, enjoy guided tours, and attend programs that tell the stories of the people, businesses, and inventions that forged the Industrial Revolution and propelled Maryland into the 21st century.
Three years ago, the BMI launched one of its most ambitious projects ever. The Bethlehem Steel Legacy Project honors the men and women who worked at Bethlehem’s massive Sparrows Point steel mill from 1887 to 2012. To tell their story, we asked what does Bethlehem Steel mean to Baltimore.
In response, the BMI has been entrusted with hundreds of objects and documents that help tell the story of steelmaking in Baltimore. And, most importantly, we’ve recorded the memories of people who worked and lived at the Point so future generations will never forget the hard work and pride that defined Bethlehem Steel.
The BMI’s newest exhibition Fire & Shadow: The Rise and Fall of Bethlehem Steel includes vivid photographs, moving first-person narratives, original artifacts, and an opportunity to explore Bethlehem Steel objects in three dimensions through augmented reality. Learn more about the exhibition
