George Herman "Babe" Ruth was born February 6, 1895 at 216 Emory Street, a Baltimore row house that is now just a long fly ball from Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
The property was leased by Babe's grandfather, Pius Schamberger, who made his living as an upholsterer. Over the course of its 30-year history, the Babe Ruth Museum's mission has evolved to not only feature the greatest baseball player ever, but also to present the rich and storied histories of Baltimore's Orioles and Colts.
Upon the opening of Sports Legends at Camden Yards on May 14, 2005, those artifacts moved into a new and larger home at Camden Station. Meanwhile, the Birthplace has reverted to its original mission to feature exhibits on the life and times of George Herman "Babe" Ruth.
