About
The Savannah Pirate and Treasure Museum takes visitors deep into the swashbuckling world of pirates who once ruled the Atlantic and prowled the American coastline. Located in Savannah's historic City Market, the museum explores the Golden Age of Piracy, when legendary figures like Blackbeard and Anne Bonny terrorized trade routes and shaped maritime history. Through immersive galleries, dramatic storytelling, and museum-quality artifacts, guests discover how pirates lived, fought, and navigated the seas during the late 1600s and early 1700s.
Inside, the museum features one of the largest collections of authentic pirate artifacts in the world, including recovered treasure, weapons, ship equipment, and interactive displays. Visitors can explore recreated ship interiors, learn about pirate codes and daily life, and uncover the truth behind myths that still define pirate lore today. Both educational and entertaining, the Savannah Pirate and Treasure Museum offers a hands-on, family-friendly experience that brings Savannah’s maritime past to life while celebrating the adventure, danger, and intrigue of piracy’s golden era.
After the tour, guests are invited to extend the experience at the museum’s themed tavern, where pirate lore meets modern indulgence. Raise a glass like a true privateer while reflecting on the daring lives and legendary tales uncovered inside the museum.
