08 Emmet Park

Emmet Park is located on the East end of Bay Street where it meets East Broad Street. The Park is the home of several monuments, including the Chatham Artillery Monument, honoring the military unit formed in 1786, the Celtic Cross Monument, honoring all savannah citizens of Irish descent, the Vietnam War Monument, and the Salzburger Monument of Reconciliation, dedicated to the Georgia Salzburger Society in 1994, honoring the Lutheran Protestants who fought for their religious freedom in Georgia.

There is a steep stone stairway which leads down to the river; however, the stairway has been closed for safety reasons.
