Within These Walls: Opening at the Lighthouse

A new exhibit in the historic Keepers’ House at the St Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum.


The Story

Donors, members, friends and dedicated volunteers celebrated the opening of Within These Walls: Duty & Daily Life at the St Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum. Housed in the historic Keepers’ House, the exhibit tells the stories of the men and women who kept the light burning, including St Augustine’s own two female Keepers. Among the treasures: an official government-issue Keeper’s table lamp and a 1930s roller skate, both unearthed in the dig behind the Keepers’ House. Included with general admission; the Museum is open daily, 9am to 6pm, except Thanksgiving and Christmas.
