在波士顿港建造的世界上最古老的仍在漂浮的战舰上与海军陆战队员见面。
美国海军 宪法 号是世界上最古老的战舰。它于 1798 年由美国海军根据 1794 年《海军法案》建造,该法案旨在为年轻的美国提供海军武器,而在此之前的六十年,大布列塔尼政府已承认美国为独立国家。大会因此批准建造六艘大型战舰。它们在今天被认为是 "美国海军的起源"。L'USS Constitution fut le troisième à être construit, et est le seul à ne pas avoir été détruit.
该舰由美国首任总统乔治-华盛顿命名,1798 年 7 月开始服役。它有 44 门大炮,最初的任务是保护国家海岸。随后,在被称为 "准奎尔"(Quasi-guerre)的与法兰西共和国的冲突时期," 宪法"号的使命是保护美国海军抵御法国的攻击,并保护敌国海军。此外,它还在 1812 年美国与布列塔尼大区的战争中发挥了重要作用,这场战争造成了海上冲突。美国海军在这场战争中夺取了敌人的十艘军舰,并摧毁了其中的三艘。盎格鲁人看到自己的加农炮没有损坏海军的外壳而恼羞成怒,将其称为 "老铁炮"(vieux flancs de fer)。
自 1818 年起,最初的铁闸门被美国海军陆续摧毁,但宪法铁闸门得到了民众的支持,他们反对摧毁铁闸门。1833 年,该舰开始进行首次改造。随后,她成为一名海军军官,1855 年她的军旅生涯结束后,她在安纳波利斯的海军学校服役,度过了塞外战争时期。1907 年,《宪法》正式成为一座博物馆。作为国家领航员,她经常参加各种官方仪式和活动。
2015 年,该舰艇被置于船舱内,进行了二十一世纪 的首次重大修复。修复费用超过 1200 万美元。2017 年,在沉没 26 个月之后,这艘航船重新驶入波士顿的水域,并将在未来的五年中继续航行。
在您参观美国 宪法号时,您会遇到专门负责回答您有关海军历史问题的海军陆战队员。请不要错过与海军博物馆毗邻的博物馆,以便进一步了解十九世纪海军战士的生活。

It is possible to get on the boat and have the feeling of what the travels were like at that time, as well as understanding a little about how it was used during the American War.
USS Constitution, also known as Old Ironsides, is a three-masted wooden-hulled heavy frigate of the United States Navy. It is the world's oldest commissioned naval warship still afloat.
It was launched in 1797, one of six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794 and the third constructed.
The name "Constitution" was among ten names submitted to President George Washington by Secretary of War Timothy Pickering in March of 1795 for the frigates that were to be constructed.
From the moment I stepped foot into the museum, I was transported back in time to an era of adventure, bravery, and naval prowess. The museum's exhibits are meticulously curated, offering a fascinating glimpse into the life and times of the USS Constitution, fondly known as "Old Ironsides."
One of the highlights of my visit was exploring the meticulously reconstructed decks of the ship itself. Walking in the footsteps of sailors who served aboard this legendary vessel, I couldn't help but feel a sense of reverence for the history that surrounded me. From the towering masts to the intricate rigging, every detail served as a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of those who sailed her.
The museum's interactive exhibits further brought the USS Constitution's story to life, allowing visitors to experience firsthand the challenges and triumphs of life at sea. Whether manning the cannons, hoisting the sails, or navigating through treacherous waters, I found myself fully immersed in the excitement and adventure of naval warfare.
But perhaps what impressed me most was the passion and dedication of the museum staff and volunteers. Their knowledge and enthusiasm were infectious, as they shared captivating stories and insights that deepened my appreciation for the ship and its place in history. Their commitment to preserving the legacy of the USS Constitution is truly commendable and made my visit all the more memorable.
My visit to the USS Constitution Museum was an enriching and inspiring experience that left me with a newfound appreciation for America's maritime heritage. Whether you're a history buff, a naval enthusiast, or simply someone looking for an engaging and educational outing, I cannot recommend this museum highly enough. Prepare to be transported on a journey through time aboard one of the most iconic ships in American history – it's an experience you won't soon forget.
