A brief history
The history of Savannah begins in February 1733, when General James Oglethorpe and 120 passengers of the ship "Ann" landed on the banks of the Savannah River. Savannah became the first city in Georgia and consisted of 24 perfect squares with squares and parks.
Since then, she has witnessed the American Revolution and the Civil War. During the colonial uprising, Savannah remained under the rule of England until 1782. After independence, the city began to flourish. The largest cotton plantations expanded and turned Savannah into the largest slave port. The local cotton exchange set world prices for this commodity.

During the Civil War, General Sherman organized a successful campaign known as the "march to the sea", as a result of which the city was "presented" to President Lincoln for Christmas.

With the beginning of the Reconstruction period, the freed slaves created a thriving community with their own churches and schools. In the twentieth century, the city again became the king of cotton, in addition, new industrial industries developed here. Savannah was becoming the most economically powerful African-American city in the country. But everything changed when insect pests destroyed most of the cotton farm crops and the Great Depression began.

In the 1950s, a group of local activists united to preserve historic structures that were threatened with destruction. Their efforts led to the foundation of the Savannah Historical Foundation, thanks to which it became possible to preserve the beautiful architecture of the city. Today, Savannah has become one of the most hospitable and popular holiday destinations in the country.
