Even the neighborhood around the cultural center is worth a meander. The freedom trail of historic sites and the cute shops are so fun. We definitely learned a lot - and we're Floridians.

As a history enthusiast, I decided to spend my birthday enriching myself with local history that has not been talked about. The trolley tour does have this museum on their list of stops so it's easy for the average tourist or local. I did drive and they have a small parking lot in the front that's easily accessible. The museum was a former school for African Americans from the 1900's until the segregation which was only 60 plus years ago. The museum ranges from the Transatlantic slave trade to the Civil Rights era. The exhibits are very telling and informative with pictures and donated pieces from different time periods. The staff member I connected with, Jean, was amazing to speak with. I'm so proud this gem is getting recognition and acknowledgement from the city. It was also great to see locals from the Lincolnville area stop in to look for past classmates or relatives from the archived photos. Also, I was surprised to see my family history connected to this museum as my childhood pastor Rev. Thomas A Wright staged one of the first sit ins in St Augustine. He formed "the Gainesville 3" who integrated the Gainesville High, which one of the three students was my Auntie Angel. This is why I love history - to see that meant so much to me because these stories are untold and we NEED this center and platform to continue to spread awareness about our rich heritage.

(Can't believe this was hardly mentioned in my schooling.). History abounds overseas, but this site lets you sample a bit of history here: the first Thanksgiving, site of the oldest Catholic Church, first mass. Definitely pilgrimage worthy. For anyone, it's a peaceful, relaxing break as well. The grounds are lovely and well maintained, a walking path goes throughout. A church, museum and chapel are on the premises. The Great Cross is immense and striking. Parking is free and available, a St Augustine rarity. A memorable part of our St Augustine visit.

Walking the grounds feels calm and meaningful, with so much to take in from the monuments to the waterfront views. The Great Cross stands tall and is even more impressive in person. It's a great spot to slow down, reflect, and enjoy the scenery. Everything is well kept and easy to explore, making it a nice stop whether you're into history or just looking for a quiet place to walk. Easy five stars. A must visit when you're in the area.
