 Pulaski Square
Named for Polish Count Casimir Pulaski, hero of the Revolutionary War, this square is shaded by nineteen majestic oak trees and was laid out in 1837. Idealistic young Count Pulaski fought on the side of the patriots in the War for American Independence. On October 12, 1779, he was knocked from his horse by a bullet during the Siege of Savannah. He died a few hours later. A monument to Count Pulaski stands in Monterey Square on Bull Street. He was also honored in the naming of Fort Pulaski.
