History and overview of the Webb Military Museum

The Webb Military Museum is the personal collection of Gary Webb, whose dedication to preserving military artefacts has built a repository spanning from the American Civil War to modern conflicts. The museum’s location in a restored warehouse near Columbia Square gives it an intimate, walk-through feel.

Displays include uniforms, headgear, weapons, letters, diaries, photographs and items donated by veterans. Many exhibits emphasize the personal connections behind military service. This makes it as emotional as it is historical. There are around 400 items on show, many with Savannah ties.

The museum operates primarily as a self-guided experience, but Webb himself or his staff are often present to share stories behind specific items. This intimate access and narrative detail distinguishes it from larger institutions. Let’s face it, military memorabilia isn’t really what people come to Savannah for, but the Webb Military Museum has more emotional heart than you might be expecting.

Because of its focused size and scope, the Webb Museum is ideal for visitors who prefer concentrated and personal storytelling rather than sprawling exhibits. Many people pair it with walking tours of nearby historic squares and sites.
