The bench was located here only for the filming of the movie , on the north edge of Chippewa Square Park at the corner of W. Hull and Bull Sts. The bench was setting where the one way sign is located.

We stumbled on to this by chance, thus proving that it's so important to just take walks through new cities , like Savannah. We also passed a beautiful fountain and the girl scouts first location

Beautiful park . Kids couldn't stop quoting Forrest Gump though.

Rebecca King

Correct! The bench was only a movie fixture & is at the history museum . Benches around square pay homage to the design of the bench in Forrest Gump.

The Original Bench is at The Savannah History Museum (303 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard). Not far from the park .

Baš bezveze...... Nema klupice... Ali je ljepo šetati okolo i vidjeti di su snimali film

The bench was a movie prop according to a local resident and is on view nearby.

Great plaza , no bench :(

Yeah, they took the bench away because people kept trying to steal it. But this is the square.

A beautiful example of Gothic Revival Architecture. It's a must see when visiting Savannah. I would skip the tour though unless you get the student price because seeing inside just isn't worth $7. - Rebecca King
