FLORIDA'S OLDEST HOUSE MUSEUM

ST AUGUSTINE, FL

The Florida’s Oldest House Museum, located in St. Augustine, Florida, is one of the oldest surviving buildings in the United States, dating back to the 17th century. The two-story, Spanish Colonial-style home is an example of the earliest European-style architecture in the country.

Originally built in the late 1600s, the house was a residence for some of the earliest Spanish settlers in St. Augustine. It was the home of Don Pedro Menendez de Aviles, the founder of St. Augustine, and his family. Over the centuries, the house has gone through numerous renovations and has been owned by several different families.

Today, the museum is open to the public and offers a unique look at the history of St. Augustine. Visitors can explore the historic home, which has been restored to its original condition, and learn about its fascinating past. The museum contains artifacts from the original house, including furniture and other items from the era.

The museum also hosts special events throughout the year, such as lectures, concerts, and other educational programs. The Florida’s Oldest House Museum is an important part of St. Augustine’s history and a popular tourist attraction.
