Monuments to Explore in Chatham County
The Casimir Pulaski Monument stands as a testament to one of the earliest Polish patriots involved in the American Revolution.The monument was dedicated to General Pulaski by Polish immigrants who had recently migrated to Savannah between 1888 and 1903. The uniquely-designed monument offers an interesting juxtaposition: an image of Pulaski mounted on horseback surrounded by four lioness figures located beneath an antique lamppost at the apex of a low mound.
Located on Cockspur Island between Savannah and Tybee Island, Fort Pulaski National Monument is the perfect destination for a history buff or a nature lover. The fort remains an outdoor exhibit, while the surrounding area offers guided tours, an indoor museum and many trails on which you can go for a bike ride or a long walk under the Georgia sun.
