Historic Nuclear Ship Savannah Public Site Visit

Come experience a time capsule of the atomic age – the world’s first nuclear-powered merchant ship, the Nuclear Ship Savannah will host a public site visit November 15th. Savannah was built as part of President Eisenhower’s Atoms for Peace program and served as a floating ambassador promoting the safe and peaceful use of nuclear power from 1962-70. The ship will be open from 10am to 3pm, where you can experience its mid-century modern interiors with atomic motifs, engine and control rooms, and other spaces, just as passengers and visitors did during its operation. In addition, you can take a self-guided tour of the containment vessel, which housed the nuclear reactor – truly a unique experience! Savannah is located at 4601 Newgate Avenue, Pier 13 Canton Marine Terminal. Please note no open-toed shoes, and the ship has limited accessibility for those with disabilities.
