Guide to Franklin D. Roosevelt's Little White House State Historic Site | Warm Springs, Georgia

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) built his little white house back in 1932, in Warm Springs, Georgia (Meriwether County). His love for the warm springs and the people of Georgia was very clear. He suffered from the effects of polio, which paralyzed his legs. He first started visiting Warm Springs back in 1924, to swim in the warm water to find a cure for his legs. The warm springs were not a cure, but they did bring him some improvement! While getting his portrait painted of himself while here in Warm Springs, he suffered from a major stroke, and sadly died 2 hours later. You can still see his unfinished portrait and the room and bed where he had passed away in.
