Join the Georgia Historical Society as over 90 cultural and historical sites open their doors free of charge on Sunday, February 11, 2018, for the Georgia History Festival’s Super Museum Sunday (SMS)! GHS will highlight participating sites in the week leading up to this annual tradition.

Explore the forts that protected the colony of Georgia’s borders from French and Spanish invasion, climb the 129 stairs at the St. Simons Lighthouse, or explore Georgia’s early settlements.
