No, the US Constitution exclusively addressed the federal courts, and only mandated creation of the Supreme Court. Article III established jurisdiction for federal courts in general, but left the details to Congress.
The States created their own judicial systems.
The expected answer is: US Supreme Court (or Supreme Court of the United States)
The US Supreme Court is the only court specifically mandated (required) by the Constitution. Article III directed Congress to create the Supreme Court, which they did with the Judiciary Act of 1789; the Constitution itself did not establish the Supreme Court. This is a common misunderstanding.
See the Judiciary Act of 1789. Not only did it establish the three tiered structure of the federal court system, but established the supreme court as well. It left the details of lower courts to Congress.

The Judicial Branch, or the federal court system, interprets the law. The US Supreme Court, head of the Judicial Branch, is the ultimate authority on the interpretation of federal law and the constitutionality of any law.
The Judiciary Act of 1789, officially titled "An Act to Establish the Judicial Courts of the United States," was signed into law by President George Washington on September 24, 1789. Article III of the Constitution established a Supreme Court, but left to Congress the authority to create lower federal courts as needed. Principally authored by Senator Oliver Ellsworth of Connecticut, the Judiciary Act of 1789 established the structure and jurisdiction of the federal court system and created the position of attorney general. Although amended throughout the years by Congress, the basic outline of the federal court system established by the First Congress remains largely intact today.
