Detailed itinerary
1
Castillo de San Marcos
Built by the Spanish in 1672, this massive coquina fortress withstood centuries of sieges, fires, and power struggles.
2
The Old City Gates at 102 Orange St. Built in 1808, these coquina stone pillars once marked the only way into the fortified city. They’re a symbol of colonial defense—but they also once stood guard over a yellow fever quarantine zone.
3
This centuries-old schoolhouse, built from red cedar and cypress, once educated colonial children under strict watch.
4
Huguenot Cemetery, St. Augustine
Opened in 1821 for non-Catholic burials, this cemetery became the resting place for yellow fever victims and society’s outcasts.
5
Once a sacred burial ground for Native peoples, later the resting place for Spanish Catholics, Tolomato is layered in centuries of death and devotion.
6
Flagler College, 74 King St. Once the lavish Ponce de León Hotel built by Henry Flagler in 1888, this Gilded Age masterpiece now serves as a college campus.
7
The Horruytiner House, 214 St. George St
Built on the foundations of a 1702 structure burned during a British raid, this Spanish Colonial home is legendary.
8
Segui-Kirby Smith House
This unassuming coquina home once housed Dr. Félix de Seguí and later Confederate General Edmund Kirby Smith—St. Augustine’s last connection to the Civil War. Today it holds archives.
