A Brief History of Berlin, Maryland
The village of Berlin began in the 1790s
around the original 300 acre 1677 land grant that became
Burley Plantation. The town's Main Street was originally
part of the path connecting the Assateague Indians with the
neighboring Pocomoke tribe. In colonial times the path
became the Philadelphia Post Road, the main travel route up
the shore to the centers of commerce to the north and west.
It is believed that the name Berlin was
derived from a contraction of "Burleigh Inn," a tavern at
the crossroads of the Philadelphia Post and Sinepuxent
Roads. In the early 1900s Berlin's bustling commercial and
tourist business supported more hotels than neighboring
Ocean City.
Today the downtown commercial and
residential area is a locally-designated historic district.
Berlin offers the true pleasures of small town living;
within a three block radius you can visit the bank, post
office, pharmacy or hardware store, browse in the antique
shops and art gallery and enjoy a fine meal.
