St. Augustine has a fascinating and storied history stretching back over four centuries. It was first discovered in 1513 by explorer Juan Ponce de Leon in his search for the Fountain of Youth.
The first settlement was established on September 8, 1565, by conquistador Don Pedro Menéndez de Avilés. He named it “San Agustín” because his ships first sighted the Florida coast eleven days earlier on August 28, the feast day of St. Augustine.
