Forsyth Park is a 12-hectare city park at the southern edge of Savannah's historic district, laid out in the 1840s and 1850s. Its white cast-iron fountain of 1858 stands at the end of an avenue of live oaks hung with Spanish moss. The park also has a Confederate memorial, a fragrant garden, sports fields and a weekly farmers' market.
The Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist near Lafayette Square is the mother church of the Catholic Diocese of Savannah. The French Gothic Revival building with twin spires was completed in 1876, rebuilt after a fire in 1898 and restored in 2000. Inside are stained-glass windows made in Austria and painted murals.
Bonaventure Cemetery lies on a bluff above the Wilmington River, about 5 km east of downtown Savannah, on the grounds of a former plantation. A city cemetery since 1907, it covers some 65 hectares of avenues of live oaks hung with Spanish moss, with Victorian monuments and the graves of the songwriter Johnny Mercer and the poet Conrad Aiken.
