ABOUT
Massie Heritage Center
Massie Heritage Center’s mission is to provide interpretive programs to help preserve the rich cultural heritage of Savannah. It was named for its benefactor, Peter Massie, who died in 1841, leaving $5000 for the establishment of a school for the poor in Savannah. The Massie School operated as a public school until its closing in 1974. The school now serves as a resource center for living history. Exhibits include a collection of period costumes and information on state and local history, as well as historic preservation. One outstanding exhibition documents the Greek, Gothic, and Roman influence on Savannah's architectural history.
