In 1735, two years after James Oglethorpe founded Savannah, the first city in the new colony of Georgia, he sent a team led by Noble Jones to find a good location for the second colonial settlement. Jones and his team found a location along the Savannah River used by Native Americans to cross. Oglethorpe named the new city after Princess Augusta, the wife of Frederick, Prince of Wales. Today, Downtown Augusta is listed on the National Register of Historic Places at the Augusta Downtown Historic District. The neighborhood is also home to the Augusta Museum of History, which was founded in 1937 and features several permanent collections and exhibitions. Other notable museums include the Morris Museum of Art, which focuses on works by Southern artists.
