Davenport House, Federal-style house museum in Columbia Square, Savannah, United States.
The Isaiah Davenport House features ornate architectural details, a curved staircase, and period-accurate furnishings that reflect early 19th-century craftsmanship.
Master builder Isaiah Davenport constructed this residence in 1820 to house his family and nine enslaved workers until his death in 1827.
The museum presents daily interpretations of urban life in 1820s Savannah through the experiences of both the Davenport family and enslaved individuals.
Located at 324 East State Street, the museum offers guided tours, educational programs, and serves as a venue for events accommodating up to 80 guests.
Seven local women saved this building from demolition in 1955, leading to the creation of the Historic Savannah Foundation and the preservation movement.
