Originally a Confederate fortress, Fort Pulaski was hit by Union cannon fire during the Civil War. The breach in the building's southeast wall led to the Union's takeover, led by Maj. Gen. David Hunter, who immediately ordered the release of slaves in that area. Fort Pulaski is located approximately 15 minutes east of Savannah and is one of many historic fortifications in the Lowcountry.
