Giving Tuesday is right around the corner and we're getting exciting!

Rackliffe House is ready to conquer the Henson-CFES Challenge. If Rackliffe receives more donations than we did last year through the Shore Gives More/Giving Tuesday campaign, we will received an additional $1 for every $2 raised. Also, there are no processing fees so all donations go directly to support our mission of preserving Rackliffe House and Worcester County history.

We thank Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore, Shore United Bank, and 47 ABC - WMDT, for their continued support of the Shore Gives More.

Our Story

In its time, Rackliffe House has witnessed marauding Spanish galleons, Barbary pirate ships, and English men-of-war. The house has stood through the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War. Today, thanks to the restoration efforts of the Rackliffe House Trust and the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, historic Rackliffe House now serves as a coastal museum that interprets 18th-century life along Maryland's seaside.
