About Solomons, Maryland
Solomons is a community of 2,650 people in Calvert County, where the Patuxent River empties into the Chesapeake Bay. The island was called Bourne's Island in 1680 and Somervell's Island in 1740. It went by Sandy Island when Isaac Solomon, a Baltimore cannery owner, bought it in 1866 and began canning oysters on it.
Houses and shops quickly gathered around the cannery, and a post office named Solomon's Island opened in 1870. Shipyards followed to serve the fishing fleet, and by the 1880s several hundred boats, all built and kept up locally, worked out of its harbor. Solomon's own house is still standing at the front of the island.
- Barney's flotilla sailed hereDuring the War of 1812, Commodore Joshua Barney led his flotilla out of this deep, sheltered harbor to strike at British ships on the Chesapeake Bay. In 1920 the German ocean liner Kronprinzessin Cecilie was laid up here. It had been built in 1906, and the United States had seized it during World War I and renamed it Mount Vernon.
- Famous for bugeyesSchooners and sloops came out of the Marsh Shipyard, but it won its fame with bugeyes, the Chesapeake Bay boat that came before the skipjack. The Wm. B. Tennison, a bugeye of that kind, is listed on the National Register.
- From 263 to over 2,600In World War II the Allied command picked Solomons for an amphibious training base. A Navy mine warfare test station came too, and the Patuxent Naval Air Station opened nearby. From 1942 to 1945 the population jumped from 263 to over 2,600, and more than 60,000 troops trained here, using its lessons on D-Day, at Tarawa and at Guadalcanal. Many were later sent to the Pacific's Solomon Islands. The yacht club served as the USO club.
- A bridge in 1977For years Solomons stayed an isolated boat-building town, home to the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory of the University of Maryland. That changed in 1977, when the Governor Thomas Johnson Bridge opened, linking the island area with St. Mary's County and the naval air station across the river.
- An arts festival since 1993Annmarie Garden, a Smithsonian-affiliated sculpture park in the woods of Solomons, shows work by Kenneth Snelson, George Rickey, Arnaldo Pomodoro and other sculptors. Since 1993 it has held a national juried arts festival, where around 100 traveling artists set up tents for a weekend to sell their work.
