National Parks in Chatham County Georgia

Fort Pulaski National Monument

Fort Pulaski National Monument includes scenic marsh and uplands that support a variety of animal life characteristic of southern barrier islands. White-tailed deer, alligators, and raccoons as well as resident and migratory birds grace the landscape. Spanish moss drapes from yaupon holly bushes and vegetation includes cabbage palms, various wetland grasses, and a variety of temperate hardwood and pine trees.

The Fort's defining event occurred during the American Civil War. In April of 1862, Union troops directed rifled cannon fire at the fort breaching the southeast angle. The quick success of this experimental cannon surprised military strategists. The accuracy and range of the rifled cannon rendered brick fortifications obsolete

Directions:

The entrance of Fort Pulaski National Monument is located about fifteen miles east of Savannah, Georgia. Follow U.S. Hwy 80 East toward Tybee Island, Georgia.
