Roundhouse Railroad Museum


Originally the site of the Central Georgia Railway Headquarters, the Roundhouse Railroad Museum was considered to be the most up-to-date, revolutionary facility of its time. Handling freight, passengers, maintenance and manufacturing at this single location, the Railway Headquarters was an indispensable site for a number of years.
 After being abandoned in the 1960’s, several local enthusiasts worked to save the buildings from destruction and today the railway is a National Historic Landmark, a “Save America’s Treasures” Site, and Georgia’s State Railroad Museum.

Battlefield Park

On October 9, 1779, the French, Haitians and American troops battled against the British soldiers who were defending Savannah. The battle ended with Britain still holding on to the city and more than 800 troops from each side either wounded or killed. Many of the dead were buried on the spot with no monuments to mark their graves. 
Today, Coastal Heritage Society is working to create a moving memorial in tribute to the many soldiers who lost their lives in the battle of Savannah.

Andrew Low House

The Colonial Park Cemetery has been a part of Savannah history for more than two centuries. From 1750 until 1853, most residents who died in the area were buried in this shaded, moss-draped cemetery.

West River Street

River Street in Savannah is one of the most visited areas in the city. Whether you sit on a bench and watch the ships and boats coming and going, take a river cruise, check out West Factors Walk and enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants. This historic waterfront area is charming and picturesque – a great spot for vacation photos.

Bay Street/Factors Walk

In 1817, Factor’s Walk was the original site for the Cotton Exchange. The area got its name because this is where the men, called factors, walked back and forth through several stories of buildings in this center of commercial activity. It was their job to factor how much cotton came in to be sold and to make things more productive; a network of iron and concrete walkways connected the buildings. In those days, and for over a century, Savannah played a big role in the cotton industry and Factors Walk was at the heart of it. The historic area runs east to west above the river with iron steps and bridges linking the old cotton warehouses on the river with the streets on a higher level.

Cotton Exchange

The Cotton Exchange was long a symbol of the importance of the cotton industry to the city of Savannah. The building on Bay Street was originally called King Cotton’s Palace and because of its Romanesque architectural style it stood out among the other buildings nearby. Today the historic building is a Solomon’s Masonic Lodge and is open to the public on special occasions. Visitors to the Central River Street area can enjoy the splendid view of the exterior of the building and the griffin, a winged lion of mythology that stands in front surrounded by a fence with medallions of poets and presidents.

Savannah Bee Company

For a sweet departure from your sightseeing, stop into the Savannah Bee Company Flagship store located at 104 West Broughton Street , just a short walk from Chippewa Square. This charming shop is not only a great place to buy a variety of honey and beeswax products, but also to learn about beekeeping and how the honey is made.

In the spirit of old Savannah, the historic City Market is alive and bustling, welcoming guests of all ages to enjoy its charming ambiance. In 1755, City Market was where fishermen and farmers brought their wares and where horse-drawn carriages brought people to meet, shop and socialize. Back then, it was Savannah’s social and commercial gathering spot. Though the original structures did not survive various fires, demolition and the eventuality of progress, a group of history enthusiasts worked to revive the City Market and due to their efforts, it is once again a center of activity.

Broughton Street

Whether you love to shop or just love to stroll, Broughton Street in downtown Savannah brings it all together for visitors of all ages. Much like the “main street” of any city, this quaint section of town provides a multitude of shops, restaurants and scenery. Antiques are plentiful, while small boutiques offer specialty clothing, gifts, art and eclectic items. Historic buildings house these charming shops and are a treat to visit even if you’re not looking to shop.

Savannah College of Art and Design Library

Wesley Monument

Known as the Father of Methodism, John Wesley is forever remembered in Reynolds Square in historic downtown Savannah. The monument constructed to honor him and his leadership of the Methodist Church stands in the center of the square. Many believe that this is the site of his residence and gardens and thus this is why it was chosen. Although Wesley only lived in Savannah for two short years, he was known for his religious ideals and for forming a Protestant sect that later became the Methodist Church.

Christ Church

A marvelous Greek-revival building, the Christ Church was founded in 1733. Upon first glance visitors notice its dignified presence, stately columns and slim side windows. The building was reconstructed in 1838 and today is home to many original artifacts.
 Among the several rectors who presided over the church is John Wesley, the founder of Methodism. Wesley is known for his musical gift and interests and for publishing his collection of Psalms and Hymns, the first publication of its kind in America.

When the original design of the City Hall building inSavannah called for ornate statues of chariots and horses, the cost to build such a structure was around $200,000—a monumental sum in those days. To keep the cost down, the statues were excluded from the final plans and the Renaissance Revival building began to be constructed. Built in 1901, the structure replaced the original 1799 building and was an impressive sight located on Yamacraw Bluff. The first City council meeting took place in the then City Exchange Building on January 3, 1906. A spectacular architectural masterpiece, City Hall features a domed roof that rises 70 feet into the air.

Washington Guns

Sitting peacefully under a canopy just east of City Hall, the Washington Guns are a quiet reminder to the explosive conflicts facing our country during the Revolutionary War. The cannons, mounted on oak carriages on a platform, were captured from the British in the Battle of Yorktown. George Washington gifted them to the Chatham Artillery militia company of Savannah in 1791 after he visited the city. Some believe that Washington gave the guns to the Artillery because of the fact that they were responsible for providing a proper funeral for Nathaniel Greene, who was Washington’s commanding general and very close friend. In 1936, the Washington Guns were fired in a salute for the anniversary of the Chatham Artillery; and in 1961, the breech was blown off the gun during a practice firing.

Oglethorpe Bench

 A meaningful reminder of the leader that is responsible for creating the city of Savannah, the Oglethorpe Bench is located on Bay Street . The Bench was built in 1906 and is said to be situated on the very spot where General James Edward Oglethorpe pitched a tent and rested on the first night he spent in Georgia. The curved granite bench is a lovely site, with curved steps leading up to it. A stone mosaic decorates the top step making it an interesting and beautiful complement.

River Street Elevators

To some, the steps that lead to River Street may seem a little steep. Some of the hotels and restaurants offer an elevator that takes you directly down to street level, putting you right in the center of everything you’d want to see and do. There’s also an outdoor elevator to transport visitors to Bay Street from River Street – a quick and convenient way to travel back and forth between the two areas. Located between the Hyatt and City Hall.

Convention and Visitors Bureau

The Savannah Convention Center and Visitor’s Bureau, offers a stunning setting for conventions, meetings or special events. Located on the northern shore of the Savannah River, the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center provides breathtaking views of Savannah’s bustling waterfront in a world class facility.

Celtics Cross Monument

To celebrate the rich Irish heritage of many of Savannah’s residents, The Celtic Cross Monument was erected in Emmet Park in 1983. The beautiful Irish Limestone Celtic Cross was hand-carved in Ireland and is truly a lovely sight for all to see.

Chatham Artillery Monument

The Chatham Artillery Monument was erected in Emmet Park in 1986 and was inspired by the 101st Airborne Memorial in Arlington Cemetery. A large, gray granite base supports a stunning bronze eagle with its wings spread. Rising to approximately 11 feet, the memorial is a striking sight and among other memorials in Emmet Park.

Vietnam Veterans Monument

Another moving tribute found in Emmet Park, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was placed in 1991 by the Vietnam Memorial Committee. A large reflecting pool is surrounded by steps and a marble base lists the names of the Chatham County soldiers who were killed in the Vietnam War. A replica of Vietnam sits in the center of the pool, while a bronze battlefield grave marker is mounted on top. Guests to the park who view the monument gain an understanding of the sacrifices the local Savannah soldiers made to serve their country.

 A beloved spot to many Irish residents and local Savannahians, Emmet Park was originally known as the Strand and the Irish Green. It’s located near a neighborhood that was home to many Irish Savannahians. In 1902, it was renamed Emmet Park as a tribute to Robert Emmet, an Irish patriot, who was considered to be a hero to Savannah’s Irish community. Several blocks long, Emmet Park is known for its thriving landscape which provides a beautiful shady setting. The park is historically significant to Savannah because of the variety of monuments and memorials. The Old City Exchange Bell is kept here and is all that is left from the City Exchange building which was destroyed by a hurricane.

Customs House

The U.S. Custom House in Savannah was built in 1852 and is Georgia’s oldest federal building. The site of the building was important from the beginning of Savannah history. A one-story frame house, built in 1733, was located on the site and was rented by James Oglethorpe, founder of the colony, on his return visits to Savannah. At the rear of the lot facing Bull Street, stood the Tabernacle and Court House. This building was described as “being one handsome room with a panache on three sides” and served as the colony’s first house of worship. It was on this site that John Wesley, founder of the Methodist church, preached his first sermon on American soil. The U.S. Custom House in Savannah is a Greek Revival structure which is rectangular in form with a raised basement and two floors above. The building is a granite bearing wall structure whose exterior surface is smooth, dressed grey granite from Quincy, Massachusetts.

A gryphon is a mythological beast that served to guard ancient treasure. Gryphon fountain is surrounded by elaborate ironwork featuring profiles of famous statesmen and poets. This ironwork was originally located at the Barclay-Wetter House. The original terra cotta gryphon fountain (c 1889) in front of the Cotton Exchange was destroyed in 2008. It took over 10 months to form the mold to have it reconstructed. The new concrete replica was rededicated in December 2009.

Salzburger's Monument

The Salzburger Monument of Reconciliation was created in 1994 by Austrian artist Anton Thus Waldner and donated by the state of Salzburg. The nearby Salzburger Monument of Reconciliation was dedicated to The Georgia Salzburger Society and given to the City of Savannah in 1994 by the State of Salzburg, Austria in memory of the Lutheran Protestants of Salzburg who were denied religious freedom and expelled from their homeland.

Popular with locals and visitors, East River Street is an integral part of the historic Savannah Waterfront. From eateries to fine dining, art galleries and boutiques, there’s something appealing for every taste.

Morrell Park/Waving Girl Statue

Olympic Torch

The Olympic Torch Sculpture on the riverfront is a touching monument that radiates the American spirit of victory and of athletic competition. The sculpture features an Olympic Torch surrounded by five columns that symbolize the five Olympic rings. Framing the flame are billowing sails that represent the sailboats in the Official Olympic Yachting events held in Savannah.

Reasons To Visit Savannah

With its Victorian architecture, country squares and lovely natural scenery, you hardly need to think of any more reasons to visit Georgia’s first city. When you arrive in Savannah, you’ll discover that there’s even more to this warm and friendly southern city. Read on for the top reasons to visit Savannah.

Pirates House

Step into The Pirate’s House for a taste of what Savannah was like in the mid 1700’s. It was a time when visiting sailors came off the seas to eat hearty meals, share a story about their adventures and raise a ruckus. An Inn, just steps away from the Savannah River, served as a watering-hole for pirates and seamen from the Seven Seas. Today, that very Inn is The Pirate’s House, a specialty restaurant featuring authentic Georgia cuisine served in a theme reminiscent of its early roots. 15 separate dining rooms showcase Pirate artifacts and seafaring décor.

Rainbow Row

Located in Savannah’s Landmark Historic District one block from River Street, Rainbow Row is a collection of charming Carpenter Italianate-style row homes. Just off Washington Square, each unit features Victorian-era details, a courtyard and a unique color scheme that embodies the ambiance of old Savannah. These distinctive properties are within easy walking distance of the Old Pink House.

Colonial District

The scenery that inspires poets, writers and dreamers, the Savannah Colonial District is a memorable journey back to an era gone by. Cobblestone streets lead to traditional colonial homes, mansions and beautiful gardens. The aroma of gardenias and magnolias will sweetly awaken your senses as will the marvelous beauty of the largest Historic Landmark District in the United States. See many graciously restored homes, churches, parks and squares framed by hundred-year old oaks whose sweeping branches create an amazing setting. Imagine the life and times of the earliest Savannah settlers as you tour the original neighborhoods where their intriguing past comes to life.

International Seaman's House

In colonial days, the International Seaman’s House was where sailors arriving in the port of Georgia came to receive a friendly welcome, engage in entertainment, listen to music and receive religious comfort if desired by various visiting Chaplains. Located on Houston Street, the International Seaman’s House is a Historic House that now hosts many special events such as weddings.

Kehoe House

Another gem among the many exquisite historic places in Savannah, the Kehoe House has been meticulously restored to capture its original 1892 glamour. The Renaissance Revival mansion is located in Savannah’s historic district and is now an opulent boutique hotel. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the hotel was once the home to William Kehoe and his family.

Telfair Owens-Thomas House

The Owens-Thomas House was the first Regency Mansion built by the then young architect William Jay and is considered to be one of the finest examples of that style of architecture in the United States. Completed in 1819, the English house was constructed mostly with local materials and was remarkable because of its curving walls, Greek-inspired ornamental molding, half-moon arches, stained-glass panels, and furniture. Today, people from around the world come to be inspired by the beauty that abounds throughout this historic house.

The Davenport House is a Federal-style house that was constructed in 1820 by master-builder Isaiah Davenport. Davenport was known for his skill and talents in the building industry and the house served as a showcase of his work as well as a family home. He lived in the house with his wife and family until he passed away from yellow fever in 1827. When threatened with demolition in the mid 1950’s, seven Savannah women got together to save the Davenport House and found Historic Savannah Foundation.

Big Duke City Fire Bell

​​Originally constructed in 1872 as a fire alarm bell for the city of Savannah, Big Duke Bell is a unique historical landmark in the Chatham community. The iconic bell was given its fun nickname in honor of Alderman Marmaduke Hamilton, chairman of the City Council Fire Committee (1871–73), when the bell was purchased. Although Big Duke Bell was built as a fire alarm, it evolved into a general alarm for police and military. Big Duke was also used to announce special occasions, such as the end of the Spanish–American War and honoring our troops upon their returns from various wars. In 1985, Big Duke was officially retired from its original purpose and moved into a memorial for all local firefighters.

Conrad Aiken Pulitzer Marker

Born in Savannah on August 5, 1889, Conrad P. Aiken has been referred to commonly as one of the most neglected giants of 20th century American poetry. Over the course of his lifetime, Aiken earned a Pulitzer Prize in 1930 — becoming the first Georgia-born author to do so. Needless to say, the local community could not have been prouder of their local star. During his years of marriage to Mary Hoover, they would spend their summers in Massachusetts and their winters in Savannah . Conrad Aiken remained an active writer throughout the 1960s. In 1963, Conrad Aiken returned to his local roots and enjoyed the last years of his life amongst friends and family. Today, Savannah remembers his legacy and his cultural contributions with a historical marker along Oglethorpe Avenue.

Old Chatham County Jail

Located in the heart of downtown Savannah, the Old Chatham County Jail was an iconic landmark for many years before its demolition. The Old Chatham County Jail was originally built in 1887 and began operations in 1888. A fire destroyed its original Byzantine dome in 1898 and was quickly replaced with the existing Moorish turret that includes four small cast-iron balconies. It was a model jail in its day, and continuously housed prisoners in its 117 cells, each measuring five-by-ten feet.

Independent Presbyterian Church


Founded in 1755, the Independent Presbyterian Church was originally called The Presbyterian Church and is considered to be the mother of Georgia Presbyterianism. With more than 250 years of history and authentic beauty, the church offers a special experience to people of all faiths. When a hurricane damaged the church in the 1800’s, plans were made to reconstruct it to its original condition. It is said that the rebuilding was so costly that pews were sold to the public to help cover the expenses. The average price of a family pew was $1,140.

Chippewa Square

One of the many lovely squares that are so much a part of Savannah’s history and charm, Chippewa Square, was established in 1815 as a tribute to the Battle of Chippewa in the War of 1812. Its location in the heart of Savannah’s historic district made it a popular social spot then and now.

A detailed statue of General James Oglethorpe stands in the center of the square, honoring the man who founded Georgia in 1733.

This unique shop located at 340 Bull Street features original works of art and crafts from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Pick up a masterpiece created by some of the best and brightest artists who are alumni and students from SCAD. You’ll surely be the owner of a work of art that is a one-of-a-kind. The shop sells everything from photography, paintings, jewelry, sculpture and pottery to handbags, clothing and much more.

Wright Square Antique Mall

Just a short walk away from the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace on State Street, this cool shop features antiques and collectibles from more than 30 local dealers. From vintage clothing, jewelry, purses and furniture to art pieces, LP albums and many other knick-knacks, it’s a great stop on your sightseeing excursions, especially for those who enjoy picking up unique souvenirs and gifts.

Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace

Juliette Gordon Low was born in a Georgian mansion in the historic district of the city. Her birthplace, the city’s first National Historic Landmark, is now a museum dedicated to her life and the Girl Scouts of America and is visited by thousands of people each year.

 Step Inside For a Historic Journey. 
Juliette Gordon Low was born on October 31, 1860 in an English Regency style mansion located in Savannah. It’s here that visitors can now learn about her remarkable life and her founding of the Girl Scouts.

2024 Savannah Victorian District Map

• VICTORIAN DISTRICT
• by Erin Clarkson

I’m a huge fan of all the beautiful homes in Savannah’s Victorian District ! They have so many intricate details that I never get tired of strolling past them. Since it’s a fairly popular area for tourists to visit, I thought it might be helpful to create a map so you can find your way around.

If you’re new around here, first of all… allow me to extend a warm welcome!

My name is Erin, and I authored the  Savannah First-Timer’s Guide . It combines my best Savannah travel tips from this website into one handy downloadable guide.

Table of Contents

A Quick Overview of the Districts in Savannah

In case you aren’t familiar with Savannah, the city was founded in 1733 and is laid out in a very simple grid-like pattern. The Historic District is the oldest section of the city, and the Victorian District developed as the city expanded.

Most of the homes in the Victorian District were built from the 1860s to the 1920s. Since that timeframe overlaps somewhat with the Victorian era, many of the homes in the district are Victorian-style homes.

Here is the general layout of Savannah’s districts, from north to south:

• Historic District
• Victorian District
• Starland District | aka: Thomas Square Streetcar District

A few other popular districts include the Plant Riverside District , Eastern Wharf, and the Canal District. All three are relatively new, and I’m sure more districts will pop up as the city continues to grow.

Savannah Victorian District Map

The Victorian District only consists of approximately 45 city blocks, so it’s very small and walkable. Here’s a map that provides a general overview so you can visualize what’s included in the district.

Victorian District West

Bull Street is the center east/west dividing line for the district. Everything west of Bull Street is the Victorian District West and everything to the east of Bull Street is the Victorian District East .

The blocks are numbered based on their proximity to Bull Street, as well. The blocks directly to the east and west of Bull Street are the “zero” blocks, the next section to the east or west is the 100 block, then the 200 block … and so on. The further east or west you venture, the higher the block numbers.

As a very general rule of thumb, the closer to Forsyth Park, the nicer the homes. For example, homes in the zero to 200 blocks are very desirable and generally have a high resale value. Homes facing Forsyth Park tend to be very pricey.

The Dixon-Exley House , which is located on the zero block of West Duffy, is probably one of the best examples of Victorian architecture in the area.

Many first-time visitors don’t realize that much of downtown Savannah is surrounded by low-income housing. For example, on the map above, the section directly west of Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. is a public housing area known as Kayton/Frazier Homes. Traditionally, Frazier Homes has been known as somewhat of a high crime area in Savannah.

What does that mean for you as a tourist? It just means you need to be more alert and cautious the further west you venture during your explorations. If you rent a home in that area, be sure to read the reviews carefully.

Victorian District East

As mentioned above, Bull Street is the center east/west dividing line for the Victorian District. The numbering works the same way on the east and west sides of the district, with the block closest to Bull Street being the zero block (east), the next block being the 100 block, etc.

There are lots of beautiful homes throughout the Victorian District! I wrote about my favorite ones in my Savannah Victorian District guide . (Skip towards the end of the post to find the list.)
