This Day in History: 09/13/1814 - Key Star-Spangled Banner. In this This Day in History video, the 9/13/1814 writing of the Star Spangled Banner by Francis Scott Key is recounted. It was inspired by the British bombing of Ft. McHenry during the War of 1812.
On September 14, 1814, the fort raised the large âStar Spangled Bannerâ flag, which inspired Key so much that he wrote a poem on whatever he could find. Thankfully, he had a letter in his pocket. On the other side, he wrote Defense of Fort MâHenry, which later became âThe Star Spangled Bannerâ that we all know.
