Port Discovery, Children's museum in Baltimore, Maryland, US.

Port Discovery is a children's museum in Baltimore housed in a multi-story building filled with hands-on stations. Visitors move through spaces dedicated to science, art, and community work, where they can touch, build, and experiment throughout the day.

This museum opened in 1998 and won recognition the following year for its launch and educational approach. Since then it has grown into an established learning destination for the region.

The museum functions as an alternative educational resource for schools and families, offering programs that respond to community requirements.

The building at 35 Market Place is fully accessible throughout for visitors with mobility needs. Schools and organized groups benefit from planning ahead to make the most of their visit.
