Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace (Wayne–Gordon House)

Built circa 1820 for James Moore Wayne and historically known as the Wayne–Gordon House, the property at 10 East Oglethorpe Avenue is best known as the birth home of Juliette Magill Kinzie Gordon (born October 31, 1860), founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA. The house served as the site of Juliette Gordon's wedding in 1886 and remains a central interpretive resource for her life and the history of Girl Scouting. The property is part of the Savannah Historic District and the Juliette Gordon Low Historic District and has been owned and operated by the Girl Scouts of the USA for decades as a house museum. The site also contains a mid-20th-century garden designed by Clermont Lee that has been the subject of preservation attention and debate. Institutional, archival, and interpretive sources treat the building primarily as an architectural and historical landmark; it functions as a museum with programming and partnerships with local archives and cultural institutions. Reported paranormal phenomena: the supplied source corpus contains no corroborated reports of hauntings, apparitions, poltergeist activity, or other supernatural occurrences at the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace. A juvenile mystery novel uses a fictional "giggling ghost" at the house as a plot device, but this is explicitly fictional and not treated as evidence of actual paranormal events in the documentary or institutional record.
