About this city
Also known as: America's Coolest Small Town
Berlin is a historic and remarkably preserved town located in Worcester County, Maryland, situated just a few miles inland from the Atlantic coast and the Assateague Island National Seashore. Developed in the late 18th century around an ancient Pocomoke indigenous trail, the town flourished as a vital stagecoach stop and agricultural trade depot. Berlin features an architecturally uniform commercial center with dozens of structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places, blending distinct late-Victorian and Federal aesthetics with a vibrant modern arts, antiquing, and boutique culture.
