Henry Ford’s Southern
Town
Located on the Great Ogeechee River, just south of Savannah, Richmond Hill, Georgia, is a
great place to spend a day, stay the night, and explore Henry Ford’s Southern
town. The automotive industrialist made Richmond Hill his winter home for almost 25
years. Visitors today can feel Ford’s influence through exhibits at the Richmond
Hill History Museum and on the Coastal Bryan Heritage Trail while also enjoying the
scenic beauty of the area that first attracted him here. Richmond Hill is also a great
location for exploring Historic Savannah, Tybee Island, and all of coastal Georgia.
