  • St. Mary’s City im St. Mary’s County im Süden des amerikanischen Bundesstaats Maryland war 1634 die vierte Siedlungsgründung europäischer Einwanderer in Nordamerika. Von da an bis 1694 war die Ansiedlung am Mündungstrichter des Potomac River, Westufer der Chesapeake Bay, die erste Hauptstadt der englischen Kolonie Province of Maryland. Im 18. Jahrhundert wurde die Stadt von ihren Bewohnern vollständig verlassen und die Häuser zerfielen. Das Gelände wurde zu Farmland und im 20. und 21. Jahrhundert ist St. Mary’s City ein dünn besiedeltes gemeindefreies Gebiet. Seit den 1960er Jahren ist das Areal der ehemaligen kolonialen Hauptstadt Gegenstand umfangreicher archäologischer Forschungen zur Siedlungsgeschichte des 17. Jahrhunderts; einige typische Gebäude der frühen Kolonialzeit wurden rekonstruiert und sind Teil eines Freilichtmuseums. Aufgrund der historischen Bedeutung wurde der St. Mary’s City Historic District 1969 vom amerikanischen Innenministerium als National Historic Landmark (nationales Kulturdenkmal) ausgezeichnet. (de)
  • St. Mary's City (also known as Historic St. Mary's City) is a former colonial town that was Maryland's first European settlement and capital. It is now a large, state-run historic area, which includes a reconstruction of the original colonial settlement, and a living history area and museum complex. Half of the area is occupied by the campus of the public honors college, St. Mary's College of Maryland. The area also contains a community of about 933 residents (not counting about 1,400 student residents in campus dorms and apartments). It is an unincorporated community under state law, and is located in southern St. Mary's County, which is the southernmost tip of the state of Maryland on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay. St. Mary's City is bordered by the St. Mary's River, a short, brackish water tidal tributary of the Potomac River, near where it empties into the Chesapeake. St. Mary's City is the historic site of the founding of the Colony of Maryland (then called the Province of Maryland). The original settlement was also the fourth oldest permanent English settlement in the United States. St. Mary's City is also considered the birthplace of religious freedom in the United States, with the earliest North American colonial settlement ever established with the specific mandate of being a haven for both Catholic and Protestant Christian faiths. It is also an internationally recognized archaeological research area and training center for archaeologists, and is home to the Historical Archaeology Field School. There have been over 200 archeological digs in St. Mary's city over the last 30 years. Archaeological research continues in the city. (en)
  • St. Mary's City, Maryland är ett kommunfritt område i St. Mary's County, Maryland. Orten som fick stadsprivilegier 1667 var provinsen Marylands residensstad från 1634 till 1695. Efter guvernörens och den lagstiftande församlingens flytt till Annapolis flyttade de flesta invånare bort och staden blev till åkermark. Idag är orten ett historiskt minnesmärke och efter decennielånga arkeologiska utgrävningar har staten Maryland idag skapat ett levande museum kallat Historic St. Marys City med rekonstruerade byggnader och historiska återskapare i tidsenlig klädedräkt.
