Historic Homes and Sights Near Downtown Vacations Homes Savannah
You need venture no further than your own front yard to immerse yourself in Savannah's history. Lafayette Square hosts a lovely fountain, donated by the National Society of Colonial Dames of America in 1983, that commemorates the 250th birthday of the Georgia colony. If you visit Savannah in March, you will see the waters go green in observance of St. Patrick's Day.
Several historic buildings bordering the square are open for tours. The most striking is the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, which towers above the northeastern edge of Lafayette Square on East Harris Street. Although the main building dates to 1873, the famous spires did not come along until about two decades later. Windows of Austrian stained glass, exquisite murals and an impressive altar all contribute to the beauty of the cathedral. You will probably wish to take photos inside and out.
Another wonderful building to see is the Hamilton-Turner Inn, a prime example of Victorian architecture. Featuring Baroque design elements tinged with Italian influences, this edifice borders Lafayette Square on Abercorn Street. Built to exacting standards in 1873 for Samuel Hamilton, it features skylights, a talking tube intercom system and a dumb waiter. Hamilton ordered the installation of indoor plumbing and electricity just a few years after completing construction. It currently operates as a grand inn and restaurant.
The Andrew Low House, just down the street at the southwest corner of Lafayette Square, dates to 1849. In its early years, the Low home hosted such notables as author William Thackeray and General Robert E. Lee. The founder of the Girl Scouts, Juliette Gordon Law, succeeded Andrew Low as a resident of the home and willed the property's carriage house to the Savannah chapter of the Girl Scouts. The Colonial Dames of America now own the house proper, which is open to visitors.
Another essential stop near downtown Savannah vacation homes and Lafayette Square is the onetime residence of noted 20th century author Flannery O'Connor. Now a museum, the home has undergone restoration to reflect an authentic Depression-era character.
