St. Augustine: 450 Years of History Comes Alive!
Experience 450 years of colorful history as you discover St. Augustine -- not as a tourist, but an explorer. Examine the rich tapestry of America's oldest city through lectures, live music, and guided field trips. Journey from the pre-European era to the conquerors and the city's transformation in later centuries. Visit the site where the Spanish landed, the Historic District, Castillo de San Marcos and the Lightner Museum. Marvel at railroad magnate Henry Flagler's legacy of grand hotels and Spanish Renaissance architecture. Observe the architecture of the Spanish, British, and Venetian Renaissance periods. View the Gilded Age, the works of Tiffany at selected historic buildings and discover the current arts scene.(Click here for more information)
