St Augustine Travel Guide

The United States’ oldest continuously settled city

The most famous landmarks in St. Augustine, Florida include Castillo de San Marcos, Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth, and historic sites such as the Oldest Wooden Schoolhouse.

St. Augustine, the United States’ oldest continuously settled city, was founded in 1565, half a century before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock and 50 years after Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon first laid sight on this shore. This St. Johns County city boasts a plethora of historically significant structures, perhaps none as famous as Castillo de San Marcos, built between 1672 and 1695.
