Overview

The Andrew Low House can be seen by docent led tours, which depart at 30 minute intervals (on the hour and half hour) every day. Tours discuss the history of the house and the Low family, showing how a wealthy family in Savannah would have lived in the 19th century. The home was built in 1848-1849 by architect John S Norris a notable architect from New York and designed in the Greek Revival style, with a mixture of Revival and Italianate details. The home occupies the entire southwest trust lot fronting on Lafayette Square. The Andrew Low House has one of the few surviving original gardens created in 19th-century Savannah, and the only one open to the public. The design of the parterre gardens dates from the mid century, shortly after the completion of the house. Their layout and planting plans have been preserved ever since, first by the Low family and later by the National Society of The Colonial Dames of America, the current owners of the house

Itinerary

  • Andrew Low House

    A visit to lovely Savannah would not be complete without a 40 minute docent-led tour of the historic Andrew Low House. This Italianate mansion was built for wealthy cotton merchant Andrew Low by John Norris a sought-after architect from New York. Andrew Low's son William and Juliette Gordon Low the famous founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA inherited the home after his passing. Guest will experience a guided tour by knowledgeable docents departing about every 30 minute (on the hour and half hour) every day. Tours discuss the history of the house and the Low family, showing how they lived in the 19th century as well as those enslaved who lived and labored at the home. First floor rooms include the family’s formal and informal parlors, the library and dining room. Upstairs are a children’s playroom and a rare-for-the-period indoor bathroom, and bedrooms, two of which were once occupied by notable guests of the family.

Great home with a viral story and connections to the Girl Scouts and Queen Victoria

Published on Aug, 2024

This is the BEST house to tour in Savannah. Our guide actually teaches how to give tours and focuses on museums. This house has connections to the Girl Scouts as well. It is furnished with items that the Colonial Dames acquired. Further, the portrait of the lady as you first walk in is a viral story how a man called and told the household about it being up for auction. Luckily, the household and Colonial Dames raised enough money and got the picture to put back in its original home.

Historic home

Published on Apr, 2024

The Andrew Low House is a well preserved historic home with original and sourced furnishings. The stories shared by the guide were interesting. She (sorry I have forgotten her name) loves her job and it showed in her enthusiasm. Juliette Gordon Low was the lady who started the Girl Scout movement in the USA.

An interesting, well-restored historic house. The guides are volunteer docents; the one we got was excellent.

Great visit.

Was very interesting and informative. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Was a great addition to going to the Juliette Gordon Low house.

Enjoyable Tour - Beautiful Home!

Published on May, 2023

If you love historic homes and history, Savannah is a great place to visit. On a recent weekend get-away I chose to tour the Andrew Low House which is located in the lovely Lafayette Square. I was just a couple of minutes late for a tour. Rather than have me wait, the lady at the desk, suggested I catch up to the tour and pay the admission ($11) after I finished the tour. I thought that was very nice. Gloria, our docent, was well versed in the history, furnishings, and architectural details of the home. I enjoyed both seeing the home and learning about it. Even though, quite 'fancy' it felt like a family home. Juliette Gordon Low, famous for founding the Girl Scouts, was the wife of Andrew Low's son, William MacKay Low. After the tour I got the ‘tea’ from the lady who collected my money. Old William was having an affair and in the process of divorcing her when he suddenly died. It was messy, but she ended up getting the house. Many of the early Girl Scout activities were conducted at the home. Highly recommended!
