Learn about St. Augustine’s tavern culture at the Oldest House Museum Complex.
The Oldest House Museum Complex is hosting two special exhibits: Salud! St. Augustine and Take A Sip.
Hosted on the second floor of the Tovar House (a historic home on St. Francis Street, built in the 1700s), Salud! St Augustine explores the history of St. Augustine’s many taverns, bars, and saloons. Ever since the founding of the city by Pedro Menendez, tavern culture has existed in St. Augustine. This exhibit highlights this culture and its changes over the different eras of the Ancient City’s history.
At the Oldest House Museum Administration Building, Take A Sip focuses on artifacts and showcases the drinking vessels within the St. Augustine Historical Society’s artifact collection — from soup tureens to satirical milk jugs of 1800s presidents.
