Collecting, preserving, and interpreting the industrial and technological heritage of the Baltimore region.
The Baltimore Museum of Industry collects, preserves, and interprets the industrial and technological heritage of the Baltimore region for the public by presenting educational programs and exhibitions that explore the stories of Maryland’s industries and the people who created and worked in them. Our goals are to provide the best educational experience for the community, to teach about the fascinating history of Baltimore, and to promote lifelong intergenerational learning.

Museum Interior

The BMI galleries recreate parts of a cannery,
a garment loft from 1900,
a machine shop from 1900,
a print shop,
Dr. Bunting's Pharmacy (where Noxzema was invented),
as well as exhibits on the food industry in Baltimore (McCormick, Domino Sugar, Esskay).
In the Decker Gallery, the Milestone wall documents inventions and processes discovered first in Baltimore, and Maryland.

Bendix items can be found throughout the museum including in the transportation and communication galleries and on the museum’s milestone wall.

The BMI is also home to the Baltimore, the oldest surviving steam tugboat and a National Historic Landmark that dates to 1906.

The library consists of over 5,000 volumes of rare and historic books. The manuscript collections cover all major industries in Baltimore from canning and the cloth trades, to violin making and the steel industry. The photographic collections consist of more than 250,000 prints and negatives, including the Baltimore Gas and Electric Company Print and Negative Collection.
