What to Do in St. Michaels

About the time of the American Revolution St. Michaels began to develop as a noted shipbuilding center. During the War of 1812, St. Michaels' militia successfully repelled two British attacks. Traditional accounts of the attack on Aug. 9, 1813, credit the townspeople with extinguishing all ground lights and hanging lanterns in treetops, causing the British to shoot over the town. Because of the event, St. Michaels earned the nickname “The Town That Fooled The British.”
