Herb House

The Herb House is a historic building located in downtown Savannah, Georgia, United States.

Some sources claim it to be built in the 18th century (1733 or 1734),[1] which would have made it the oldest extant building in the state of Georgia;[2][3] however, its construction in local handmade brick[4] puts this in doubt.

[5] The Herb House was built on a ten-acre plot of land located on the east side of James Oglethorpe's original plan of the city of Savannah.

The front of the first floor was used for tools and gardening supplies,[6] while the rear was stables.

[7] In 1948, Pirates' House and the surrounding land was acquired by The Savannah Gas Company.
