1 Fountain at Forsyth Park in Savannah, Georgia

This fountain is the beautiful centerpiece of the Forsyth Park in Savannah’s historic district. Above the four tritons is a robed woman carrying a staff. The greenspace was inspired by the French when it was designed in the 1840s and then expanded in 1858. The park’s namesake is John Forsyth. He began his distinguished political career in 1813 as a member of the U. S. House of Representatives. Later he was a U. S. Senator from Georgia, the state’s 33rd governor and the U. S. Secretary of State. Forsyth also donated 20 acres of land for the park.
