This historic square was established in 1815 to honor the Battle of Chippewa during the War of 1812. In its heart stands a statue of General James Oglethorpe, the colony's founder, who was both a military leader and a champion of social reform. It's also famously known as “the Forrest Gump square” due to its appearance in the movie, where the main character sits on a bench and recounts his life story over a box of chocolates. The scene was filmed on the square's north side with Oglethorpe in the background, using a unique bench brought in for filming. It's a beautiful location with majestic live oaks dripping with Spanish moss and plenty of benches to sit and take in the scenery, especially after a long ride.
