American Prohibition Museum, Museum of Prohibition history in Historic District, Savannah, United States
The American Prohibition Museum features 20 exhibits with artifacts, dioramas, and displays depicting the nationwide ban on alcohol production and distribution from 1920 to 1933.
The museum documents the passage of the 18th Amendment in 1919, which made the manufacture, sale, and transport of alcoholic beverages illegal across the United States.
The exhibits present the social changes of the 1920s, including the transformation of women's roles, fashion trends, and the emergence of underground drinking establishments.
The museum welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with an operational speakeasy called Congress Street Up serving period-appropriate cocktails.
Guests can examine authentic artifacts from raids on illegal distilleries and learn about the methods moonshiners used to produce and distribute alcohol during the ban.
