St Mary's County Historical Society

Tudor Hall, a Georgian-style home originally built in 1744 and expanded in the 1760s, was the residence of Phillip Key, the uncle of Francis Scott Key, composer of the "Star-Spangled Banner." This historic house features distinctive architectural elements, including an inset portico, a hanging staircase in the main hall, and a triple fireplace in the kitchen, marking its significance as a Maryland War of 1812 site.

Currently, Tudor Hall serves as the research library for the St. Mary's County Historical Society, offering a glimpse into the past while housing a bookstore for historical literature. Visitors are encouraged to explore this landmark, rich with local history and heritage.
