Georgia State Historic Sites

Georgia has a number of state historic sites that are operated by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. The state historic sites include Revolutionary forts and Civil War battlegrounds, homes of former Presidents, ancient Indian mounds and Native American heritage sites, plantations, unique homes and the site of the first gold rush. There are scheduled events and entertaining re-enactments at many of these sites.
