USS Constitution

The USS Constitution was one of the most valuable ships used in the War of 1812, although the ship was actually launched as early as 1797. Many of the ships like this were scrapped, but the USS Constitution became one of the most celebrated ships of its day thanks to the battle against the HMS Guerriere. The ship has been called 'Old Ironsides' ever since. People can actually visit the ship itself for free, and the boat has been thoroughly restored.
