Reviews of Massie Heritage Center
"This historic structure, referred to as Savannah's Cradle of Public Education is a fantastic place to visit. The host. Betsy Haun was very friendly and knowledgeable. The exhibits are wonderful and should be viewed by adults and children alike. My favorite exhibit was the classroom with the desks in it. I spotted the exact type of desk I had in Public School in the 1960s. This site deserves a five star review and tributes should be paid to not only for the City of Savannah, but to their education system as well."
"I love the Massie Heritage Center. I suggest the Massie on a daily basis because it is one of the best all-encompassing museums in the city. I feel the Massie does a fantastic job on featuring all of Savannah's History. Why she was founded, the Native Americans who lived her before us, Slavery, Emancipation, Architecture and the city's Preservation History. This is an explore at your own pace, there is a lot of reading, being it is one of the only places who discuss the Native Americans they do a pretty good job, is it perfect, no. However, covering all of these areas with a building that dates back to 1853 is extremely difficult, it was also an Elementary School, so the bathrooms are smaller than a normal museum. I also love the school on the top floor with the bell. My children have visited the Massie on numerous occasions for school. They have always enjoyed it; they have never mentioned the docents were mean or rude (trust me they both would have), I also have never experience this in all my visits to the Massie. This museum is also part of our school system, they do not get much funding for this museum. For the budget they have they do a fantastic job. As for the Bus Parking comment, Bus Parking is dictated by the city, not by the Massie Heritage Center. I strongly suggest if they say don't park in a certain place, you listen because the fines are costly, even if you stay with the vehicle."
"This is an awesome hands-on experience. The staff were kind and informative. The building doesn't have immediate ease of access for those in wheelchairs or limited mobility, so there's some extra planning required. The videos are not closed captioned or subtitled. So that's an unfortunate lack of access on that front."
"This is the first public school in the state of Georgia, built for the poor citizensof the community. It opened in the 1850s and closed in the 1970s. The center features history of the indigenous people of the land, a maritime museum, the original classroom, the layout of the city of Savannah, outdoor courtyards, and an architectural museum. Great wealth of information at this place"
"Great place to learn about history of Savannah. Native American exhibit closed for restoration and can no longer bring school bell but still a great place to see in Savannah"
