Add Your Story! Crownsville Hospital Oral History Project

Residents, former employees, patients, neighbors and other community members, if you have a story about the Crownsville State Hospital that you would like to share, you are encouraged to complete the Crownsville Hospital Oral History Project survey.

The historic transfer of the former Crownsville State Hospital from the State of Maryland to Anne Arundel County is complete. The Crownsville Hospital Oral History Project aims to create a repository of personal stories and remembrances that can be shared for today and for the future. Work is beginning to transform this space into Crownsville Hospital Memorial Park, the green and healing heart of our county.

As the County preserves this land and its history, it is important that we also preserve your stories about this institution. The County would like to hear your stories, and archive and share them for today and the future. If you are willing to share your remembrances of Crownsville State Hospital, please complete the following Survey.

The Crownsville Hospital Oral History Project survey can be found here: aarecparks.org/CrownsvilleOralHistoryProject

The survey will remain open through April, then interested respondents will have the opportunity to have their story recorded for archival use at a future Crownsville Hospital museum. Thank you!
