William Paca Garden
186 Prince George Street
Visit the William Paca Garden and explore a secret oasis of natural beauty nestled in the heart of Annapolis. This colonial garden, hidden behind the William Paca House, has been reconstructed to its original design featuring a terraced landscape with formal parterres, naturalistic wilderness, and practical kitchen and medicinal gardens.
Advance registration available, but not required.

Guided, hour-long tours of the William Paca House will be available for a higher admission fee, and begin on the half hour starting at 10:30 am. The last tour is offered at 1:30 pm. Register in advance for a guided tour here.
Accessibility Considerations: Visitors with limited mobility can access the brick Paca Garden Terrace via the driveway of the Paca House. A single use accessible restroom can be accessed by a ramp. The upper portion of the garden can be accessed via a ramp with handrails, but please note that garden pathways are loose pea gravel and steps must be traversed to access the lower levels of the garden.
Waterfront Warehouse
