I ought to know. We have family buried in the historic French Huguenot church located at 136 Church Street.

Our family came over in the early 1600s.) “We’ve always wanted to visit both Savannah and Charleston. We chose Charleston first. It’s so wonderful that we can’t wait to get to Savannah to compare.” –--Beatrice K., San Diego “Forget all this history. I come to Charleston for the food. There’s a culinary rebirth going on in the South, and it’s centered in Charleston, so any foodie is going to have a great time.
