Finding the house

The Davenport House stands on Columbia Square in Savannah’s historic district. Tours begin at the museum entrance inside the Historic Kennedy Pharmacy, at the corner of East Broughton and Habersham Streets.

• By car: street parking is metered from Monday to Saturday, 08:00–20:00; the nearest city garage is at East State and Abercorn Streets.
• On foot: the house is in the historic district, within walking distance of many hotels; allow extra time in warm weather.
• Before arrival: leave time for the journey and entry checks so you are ready for your booked slot.

Useful stops along the way

Facilities can change through the year. Visitors can usually expect:

• A museum shop in the Historic Kennedy Pharmacy, open Monday to Saturday.
• Guided tours for up to 15 people, about 70 minutes long.
• Two exhibitions, Urban Enslaved and Seven Ladies.
• Cafés nearby on Broughton Street for refreshments.

Wear comfortable shoes for the stairs, and keep your phone silenced on the tour. Ask staff about current arrangements when you arrive.

A visit that works for you

The house has three sets of curved stairs with handrails and no lift. The Urban Enslaved and Seven Ladies exhibitions are wheelchair accessible.

• Check arrangements for your particular mobility or access needs before travelling.
• If you are bringing a stroller, confirm the current arrangements before arrival.
• Only trained service dogs are permitted; ask museum staff for assistance during your visit.

Enjoy the house thoughtfully

• Stay with your group throughout the tour, and keep your phone silenced.
• Do not touch objects or lean on the wallpaper and woodwork.
• Flash photography is not allowed, and full-length recordings of staff need permission.
• Only trained service dogs are permitted.
• Follow your guide’s directions on the stairs and in the rooms.

A little care helps protect the house and its rooms for everyone.

Make time for a pause

Broughton Street and the streets around Columbia Square have cafés and restaurants for a meal before or after your visit.

• Stop for breakfast, lunch, a hot drink or refreshments nearby.
• Leave room in your plans to sit down and enjoy the setting.
• Check opening hours and menus on the day; food and drinks are purchased separately.

Leave food and drink outside the house during your tour.
