Colonial Spanish Quarter Museum

Colonial Spanish Quarter Museum Review

To get a sense of how Spanish soldiers and their families lived in 1740s St. Augustine, stroll through this living-history museum housed in nine small buildings reconstructed on original foundations. In historic vignettes along the way you'll likely see a blacksmith, carpenter, leatherworker, and calligrapher/scribe at work. Even younger kids enjoy the costumes and recountings of history. Closed to the general public for a year, the quarter is reopening under new management in late 2012.
