About Us
Historic Savannah Foundation is a non-profit historic preservation organization supported by a strong and dedicated membership. The Foundation was established in 1955 in order to save the 1820 Isaiah Davenport House on Columbia Square from demolition. From this initial project, Historic Savannah Foundation launched a Revolving Fund Program, which has saved over 350 buildings.
The mission of Historic Savannah Foundation is to preserve and protect Savannah’s heritage through advocacy, education and community involvement.
This historic property was saved by Historic Savannah Foundation in, 1955 and opened as a fully restored museum house in 1963.
