　　Built from red cedar and cypress, the 200-year-old building contains animatronic teachers and students, and provides a glimpse into 18th-century life and education. Naughty kids may be frightened into civility when they see the dungeon.

Must-see attractions

Spanish Military Hospital Museum

　　Not for the faint of heart, guided tours of this museum discuss Colonial-era medical techniques in all their gory glory: amputations, leeching, the whole shebang. Housed in a reconstruction of the original hospital, the museum will make you glad you're not a patient in 1791. Discounted tickets can be reserved...

Hotel Ponce de León

　　This striking former luxury hotel, built in the 1880s, is now the world's most gorgeous dormitory, belonging to Flagler College, who purchased and saved it in 1967. Guided tours are recommended to get a sense of the detail and history of this magnificent Spanish Renaissance building. At the very least,...

St Augustine Beach

　　This white-sand beach almost gets lost in the historical mix, but hey, it's Florida, so a visit wouldn't be complete without a little bit of sun and surf. There's a visitor information booth at the foot of St Johns Pier, where you can rent a rod and reel (two hours...

Castillo de San Marcos National Monument

　　This photogenic fort is an atmospheric monument to longevity: it's the country's oldest masonry fort, completed by the Spanish in 1695. In its time, the fort has been besieged twice and changed hands between nations five times – from Spain to Britain to Spain Part II to the USA to...

Alligator Farm Zoological Park

　　Herpetophobes should run in the other direction of this facility – the only one on the planet with every species of crocodilian in residence. Nature lovers, on the other hand, will love it. Look for albino alligators, gorgeous gharials and seven different species of endangered monkey, including the world's smallest,...

Anastasia State Recreation Area

　　Locals come to escape the tourist hordes at this terrific park, which is a beautiful quilt of estuarine marsh, maritime forest, boardwalk paths and sandy beach. There's also a campground (campsites $28) and rentals for all kinds of water sports. ...

Pirate & Treasure Museum

　　Little kids and big kids alike will enjoy this mash-up of theme park and museum: a celebration of all things pirate. As well as genuine historical treasures (including real gold) there's plenty of animatronic pirates, blasting cannons and a kid-friendly treasure hunt. The historical worth is dubious – pirate life...

Colonial Quarter

　　See how they did things back in the 18th century at this re-creation of Spanish Colonial St Augustine, complete with craftspeople demonstrating blacksmithing, leather working, musket shooting and all sorts of historical stuff. A replica Spanish caravel (ship) is among the items. They also do canon and musket firing. 　　Discounted...

Ximenez-Fatio House

　　Dating to 1798, this fascinating museum complex includes the main house building, the area's only detached kitchen building and a reconstructed washhouse. All are set on immaculately manicured grounds, dating to St Augustine's original town plan of 1572. Magnificently restored and chock-a-block full of artifacts and relics, the museum focuses...

　　If you're looking to do a date night in St Augustine, it's hard to beat Preserved. They take the locally sourced Southern genre to delicious heights in the airy, historic-chic dining room; shrimp and grits come with creamed corn and bacon lardons, while roasted chicken comes with glistening black-eyed peas...

Villa Zorayda Museum

　　Looking like a faux Spanish castle from a medieval theme park, this gray edifice was built out of a mix of concrete and local coquina shells in 1883. The structure was the fantasy (and maybe fever dream) of an eccentric millionaire who was obsessed with Spain's 12th-century Alhambra Palace. Today,...

Lightner Museum

　　Henry Flagler's former Hotel Alcazar is home to this wonderful museum with a little bit of everything, from ornate Gilded Age furnishings to collections of marbles and cigar-box labels. The dramatic and imposing building itself is a must-see, dating back to 1887 and designed in the Spanish Renaissance Revival style...
