The Marshall House, Historic hotel in Savannah, US
The Marshall House is a four-story brick building on Broughton Street featuring wrought iron details, tall windows, and original wood floors throughout its spaces. The structure preserves its architectural character from its founding era and operates as lodging in the Historic District.
Mary L. Marshall established the hotel in 1851 as Savannah expanded as a city. During the Civil War from 1864 to 1865, Union forces converted the building into a hospital, marking a significant shift in its use during wartime.
The third floor displays Civil War artifacts including original prints, newspapers, letters, and documents that reflect Savannah's experience during the war. These objects offer glimpses into how people lived through that period.
The hotel sits in the Historic District with direct walking access to shops, restaurants, and River Street without needing transportation. Visitors can easily explore nearby historical sites on foot.
Guests report encounters with unseen children moving through the hallways and water faucets operating on their own during nighttime hours. These mysterious occurrences have earned the place a reputation as one of Savannah's most active supernatural locations.
