Oldest House Museum Special Exhibit: The Winter Colony
(904) 824-2872The Oldest House Museum Complex hosts two special exhibits exploring the late 1800s when St. Augustine became a "winter colony" for wealthy tourists. Whether they visited for their health or simply on vacation, many affluent people from northern states would stay in the Ancient City during the cooler months (much like today's "snowbirds"). The exhibits run from Wednesday, April 17, through Monday, May 27, 2024 (Memorial Day).
