  • Georgia's oldest standing brick fortification perches on the banks of the Savannah River so its guns could fire on any vessel coming into Savannah. Two powder magazines and most of the casemates are open to the public, and they contain displays of weaponry and tools used at the fort and artifacts from the CSS Georgia, a Confederate ironclad whose remains lay on the river bottom a few hundred feet away. The two 9-inch Dahlgren cannons seen on the parapet are the largest functional pieces of pre Civil War–era heavy artillery in the United States.<br />
