• Andrew Low House - A trip to charming Savannah is incomplete without a 40-minute docent-led tour of the historic Andrew Low House. This Italianate mansion was constructed for the affluent cotton merchant Andrew Low by John Norris, a renowned architect from New York. After Andrew Low’s passing, his son William and Juliette Gordon Low, the celebrated founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA, inherited the residence.

Visitors can enjoy a guided tour led by knowledgeable docents, departing approximately every 30 minutes (on the hour and half-hour) daily. The tours explore the history of the house and the Low family, illustrating their 19th-century lifestyle, as well as the lives of the enslaved individuals who lived and worked there. The first-floor rooms include the family’s formal and informal parlors, the library, and the dining room. Upstairs, guests will find a children’s playroom, a rare-for-the-period indoor bathroom, and bedrooms, two of which were once occupied by notable guests of the family.

Visitors can explore the Andrew Low House through docent-led tours, which are available every day at 30-minute intervals, starting on the hour and half-hour. These tours delve into the history of the house and the Low family, illustrating the lifestyle of a wealthy Savannah family in the 19th century.
Constructed between 1848 and 1849 by the renowned New York architect John S. Norris, the house showcases Greek Revival architecture with a blend of Revival and Italianate elements. It occupies the entire southwest trust lot facing Lafayette Square.
The Andrew Low House features one of the few remaining original gardens from 19th-century Savannah, and it is the only one accessible to the public. The parterre gardens, designed shortly after the house’s completion, have been meticulously maintained, initially by the Low family and now by the National Society of The Colonial Dames of America, the current custodians of the property.
