About Davenport House Museum
The Davenport House Museum, housed in a circa 1820 building, opened in 1963 after being saved from demolition in 1955. It is owned and operated by the Historic Savannah Foundation, which was founded to protect the house. Visitors can explore the lives of both enslaved and free people who dwelt in the house in the early 19th century. The museum offers experiences centered on this Savannah-centric tale of courage and determination.
