The Rossborough Inn, Federal architectural inn at University of Maryland, US
The Rossborough Inn stands near Baltimore Avenue with red brick walls, white trim details, and symmetrical wings added during 1938 renovations.
Built in 1803 by John Ross, the structure served travelers between Baltimore and Washington DC before becoming part of Maryland Agricultural College in 1858.
The building houses carved details including the head of Silenus above the front door, reflecting early 19th-century architectural preferences in Maryland.
The Office of Undergraduate Admissions operates from the Rossborough Inn, making it a central point for prospective students visiting the university campus.
Confederate General Bradley T Johnson established his headquarters in the building during the 1864 occupation of university grounds.
