Lightener musuem

 History

The Lightner Museum, located in the historic Alcazar Hotel in St. Augustine, Florida, offers visitors a glimpse into America’s Gilded Age. Built in 1888 by railroad magnate Henry Flagler, the building itself is a marvel of Spanish Renaissance Revival architecture. The museum’s collection includes fine and decorative arts from the 19th and early 20th centuries, with artifacts ranging from Tiffany glass and Victorian art to antique furniture and curiosities. With its grand ballroom, lush courtyards, and impressive stained glass, the Lightner Museum beautifully preserves and showcases the opulence of a bygone era, inviting guests to step back in time.
