NPS Headquarters – Castillo de San Marcos Roof Replacement in St. Augustine, FL

America Begins Here – A monument not only of stone and mortar but of human determination and endurance, the Castillo de San Marcos symbolizes the clash between cultures which ultimately resulted in our uniquely unified nation. Still resonant with the struggles of an earlier time, these original walls provide tangible evidence of America’s grim but remarkable history.

Unique among National Parks, the Castillo de San Marcos embodies nearly 450 years of history and culture that can not be fully experienced in a single visit. A little planning ahead will help make the most of your time with us.

You are encouraged to explore the NPS.gov website and discover those areas and activities that interest you the most. The site provides both basic information and background studies that can help you plan a successful visit to the Castillo. When planning your visit, please keep in mind the average visitor spends between one and two hours at the Park.
