The numerous remaining colonial buildings in the historic district present an impressive array of architecture from 1703 to 1898. Some of the most noted buildings in the district are located on the Plaza de la Constitución, the colonial community's focal point. Here are found the Government House (governor's residence, built 1713), Trinity Episcopal Church (1825), and the Basilica Cathedral of St. Augustine which incorporates the 1797 parish church and is one of the oldest Catholic religious buildings in the U.S.

Notes
Tours daily 10am and 2pm
Tours depart from the main lobby (Rotunda) of the College located at 74 King Street. Tickets may be purchased at this location 15 minutes prior to each tour, or at Flagler's Legacy located at 59 Saint George Street (open daily between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.) Pricing is $6 for adults
For more information about the tours, please contact Samantha Peacock Palmer, Director of Historical Tours at (904) 823-3378.
Visitors will begin in the Rotunda where they will stare up into an 80-foot domed ceiling supported in part by eight ornately carved oak caryatids, robed women copied from the temple of Diana in Greece.

Other stops include the Dining Hall, where 79 of Louis Comfort Tiffany's stained glass windows are displayed. Then onto the Flagler Room, originally the hotel's Grand Parlor, where visitors gaze upon Tiffany Austrian crystal chandeliers, a massive onyx Thomas Edison clock - one of the first ever to be used in a public building - and a historical photo gallery of the Flagler family.
Recommended by Florida Off the Beaten Path for its lavish gardens, fountains, and for the fact that it was formerly the hotel that Ponce de Leon built
