Krug Iron Works, Historic ironworks in Baltimore, United States.

The complex includes a two-story gable-roofed building from the early 1800s and a four-story Victorian structure with business offices and storage rooms.

Founded in 1810, G. Krug & Son Ironworks became a family enterprise when Gustav Krug joined in 1848 and took full ownership after Andrew Merker's death in 1871.

The ironworks produced metalwork for numerous Baltimore buildings, including Johns Hopkins Hospital, with their distinct style becoming known as the Otterbein Style.

Located at 415 West Saratoga Street in Baltimore, the facility maintains its original purpose while offering museum exhibits about traditional metalworking techniques.

The establishment holds the distinction of being the oldest continuously operating blacksmith shop in the United States, spanning over two centuries of metal craftsmanship.
