Lightner Museum
Lightner Museum displays decorative arts within St. Augustine’s former Hotel Alcazar. Its decorative-art displays and historic resort setting make the architecture part of the experience of looking.
The building and collection illuminate each other: this is a former resort hotel as well as a museum. Look at the architecture alongside the objects to understand the setting of the display. Moving through the former hotel encourages attention to the display’s surroundings as well as its objects, connecting craftsmanship with a building shaped by leisure and design.
