Just a week after visiting Andalusia, the dairy farm where southern author Flannery O’Connor spent her final years, we found ourselves in Savannah. I immediately booked a guided tour of the Flannery O’Connor Childhood Home.

In fact, two women we met at Andalusia had recently been to Savannah and said seeing it was a must-do. I’m so glad we took their advice! The home, situated across Lafayette Square (pictured above), offers another facet of the author’s short life.
