An Exit

This is part of the interior of Ft. Pulaski in Savannah, Georgia. It was completed in 1847 by Major Babcock with the assistance of then Second Lieutenant Robert E. Lee, newly graduated from West Point.

Ft. Pulaski is built on Cockspur Island on the site of two previous earth and log forts; Ft. George built in 1761 and Ft. Greene built in 1795. The island is located just inside the mouth of the Savannah, River.

After the civil war, Ft. Pulaski was neglected until 1924, when it was made a National Monument. During the great depression, the CCC helped restore Ft. Pulaski to its present condition and it is now open to the public.
