Savannah History

The Hostess City of the South

One of the South’s most romantic and elegant coastal cities, the rich heritage and cultural beauty of Georgia’s oldest settlement draws thousands of visitors each year. Experience Savannah’s sultry climate, heavy with Spanish moss and Southern charm, that invites you to slow down and savor the experience of a city where the old graciously welcomes the new.

Shades of the past everywhere you go.

Savannah’s signifiance to the story of America dates back to 1733 when Georgia was founded as a refuge for English debtors, becoming the first city in the 13th and final British colony. Savannah grew as a profitable and attractive port city, thanks mainly to its rich soil, mild climate, and favorable waterfront location.

A city built upon her dead.

A city as old as Savannah is bound to be marked by remnants of its past. As eerie as it is elegant, Savannah has suffered waves of calamity- wars, epidemics, fires, and natural disasters. As you explore its picturesque squares, you will feel the remnants of these tragic events that altered the very fabric of Savannah and claimed scores of the city’s population, leaving behind a history rich with mystery, legends, and lore.

Like any strong Souther city, Savannah would rise from tragedy to become one of the most prestigious destination cities in the country.
