Churches and temples in Baltimore (Independent City)

This tour visits places of worship, among them churches, cathedrals, synagogues, temples and chapels. Congregations still use many of them and access depends on the hours they keep.

The stops that carry a construction date run from 1821 to 1880. 14 stops, 2.4 miles end to end. Of the stops, 3 are National Historic Landmarks.

Distances are straight lines between the coordinates in the National Park Service Register data, so the walk on the street will be longer. Nobody has walked or checked this as a route, and a listing does not mean a place is open to visitors. Stops last changed Oct 16, 2026.

Map

Coordinates come from the National Park Service National Register spatial data, or from Wikidata where the spatial data has no point. The solid line joins the stops in walking order and is not a street route. Listings with a restricted address in the Register are never mapped and never become stops. Data refreshed November 02, 2026.
