I recently visited The Lincolnville Museum, and it was an incredible experience! The museum offers a deep and rich insight into the history and culture of the African American community in St. Augustine. I was truly moved by the exhibits, which are not only informative but also beautifully curated to tell the powerful stories of resilience, strength, and hope.

The staff was welcoming and knowledgeable, eager to share the significance of each artifact and piece of history. I left with a newfound appreciation for the contributions and struggles of those who helped shape this community. Whether you're a history buff or just looking to learn more about the local culture, The Lincolnville Museum is a must-visit. I highly recommend it!

What a fantastic museum! It’s situated in what was the first Black high school in the county, so I immediately felt immersed in the history that I began to read. The young woman working there gave us a great introduction and orientation to the museum, which I really appreciated. I learned SO much about St. Augustine and its pivotal role in the Civil Rights Movement, and had so many “aha” moments here. They also pointed us to some great Black-owned businesses in the area-make sure to ask for local recommendations. This museum deserves your support!

I’m so glad I visited during my trip to St Augustine! I learned so much about this area’s Black history and civil rights history that I would have had no idea about otherwise! The museum was thought-provoking and moving—well worth a visit.

Incredible visit to The Lincolnville Museum today with our group. So much rich black culture and history there… so happy it was laid out so we can remember and celebrate the heritage! Need to return and explore more! So much information and our sweet guide Caroline was so knowledgeable and patient as we asked our many questions. Highly recommend spending some time here.

Very interesting place. I learned about the history of American Black families, their struggles and triumphs in St. Augustin. Well told. You do need a little gift shop. That's probably yet to come.

I really do not like to give too much info about museums, especially this one from the woman who greeted us to the tons of history to see,you have to just see for yourself Especially NOW a must ...

If you’re thinking about visiting the museum, do it. Go! This museum does a fantastic job of taking huge concepts—slavery, empire and colonialism, civil rights—and telling specific stories relevant to the area. Thank you to everyone involved!!
