Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil Rights Museum, Civil rights museum in Savannah, United States.

The Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil Rights Museum documents the African American experience in Savannah across three floors with photographs, objects, and detailed exhibitions. The spaces show everyday life under segregation and the struggles for equality in this community.

The building was constructed in 1914 and first housed an African American bank. It later served as headquarters of the Savannah chapter of the NAACP. In 1996 the museum opened, funded by a Chatham County sales tax and run by the local Association for the Study of African American Life and History, then led by W. W. Law.

The museum honors how local activists and ordinary people worked together to challenge segregation in their neighborhoods. Visitors encounter stories of sit-ins and demonstrations that became turning points for the entire community.

The museum occupies a 1914 building across three floors, with the first floor holding photographs, a bronze bust of Ralph Mark Gilbert and the recreated Azalea Room of Levy's Department Store. A mezzanine theater styled as an African American church sanctuary sits between floors, and the second floor holds lecture halls, classrooms, a computer room and a video and reading room.

The Eloria S. Gilbert Archives, donated by Reverend Gilbert's widow on July 8, 2020, holds hundreds of typewritten sermons he delivered at First African Baptist Church, plus scripts of passion plays performed in Savannah. Mrs. Gilbert, an NAACP field representative who lectured in more than 25 cities, kept the papers after his death in 1956.
