Overview
Step back into the 1830s at the Ximenez-Fatio House Museum, one of St. Augustine’s most celebrated historic attractions. Offering a glimpse into the city’s early tourism era, long before Henry Flagler transformed Florida travel, the museum brings history to life through immersive experiences and expert storytelling.
Visitors can enjoy Audio Tours and Guided Tours Monday through Saturday, along with a variety of specialty tours and seasonal events offered throughout the year. As you explore the beautifully preserved rooms, knowledgeable guides share the fascinating stories of the remarkable women who owned and operated the property as an exclusive boarding house, as well as the distinguished guests who spent their winters there during the 1830s through the 1850s.
