5 /5 HHP: Freedom in Florida was provided by Haitians. To include at 42 St. George Street, stood the first Black general Jorge Biassou home. He came to St. Augustine in 1796, as an officer of the Spanish military. Biassou was one of the original leaders of the 1791, slave uprising in Haiti, and for his service to the Spanish against the French he became a Spanish general and came to St. Augustine as the colonys second highest-paid official. In St. Augustine, Biassou was placed in command of the free Black militia that guarded the southern approach to the city at Fort Matanzas, and at the pioneer free Black settlement that formed the northern defense at St. Augustine at Fort Mose. Today Fort Matanzas is part of the National Park Service and Fort Mose is a Florida State Historic State Park.

4 /5 Ciro Borrelli: A Delightful Day Trip to Saint Augustine During a long vacation that included three days in Orlando, my family and friends decided to take a break from Disney and visit the coast. We chose Saint Augustine, and it was worth it! The town is charming, with the picturesque Saint George Street lined with original colonial buildings, small shops, restaurants, and ice cream parlors. We also enjoyed a nice lunch at Saint Augustine Beach right on the shore. While I’m not sure I’d return for a longer stay, it’s definitely a must-see if you’re in the area. Only two hours from Orlando!
