About American Prohibition Museum

American Prohibition Museum is the only museum in the United States dedicated to the history of Prohibition. Visitors travel through interactive exhibits and immersive displays exploring how America grappled with alcohol policy from the early 1900s through the 1920s. The museum features more than 200 historic artifacts, including restored Prohibition-era vehicles, moonshine stills, period flapper dresses, and unique flasks. Specific exhibits include a recreated 1918 street scene, a moonshining setup from Appalachia, displays on the flapper revolution and speakeasies, information about bootleggers and NASCAR's origins with moonshine runners, and memorabilia from Carry Nation's temperance campaigns. Costumed docents guide visitors through dioramas, photographs, murals, and videos. The museum includes Congress Street Up, a speakeasy serving authentic Prohibition-era cocktails. Guided tours lasting 45 minutes are available, along with cocktail classes where visitors make their own drinks. Located in Savannah's City Market, the museum operates daily with hours published online. Guests of all ages may visit the galleries.
