Florida is the state to be recognized for a lot of things by the rest of the country. For example, we have the oldest wooden schoolhouse in the entire United States within our state lines. There is a lot of history within the Sunshine State, including the first-ever established wax museum, which is a historical experience that the whole family will love.
Open seven days a week, Potters Wax Museum in St. Augustine, Florida is a tried-and-true gem for anyone visiting town.
For history lovers, this museum will be a fun way to spend an afternoon, examining all the details beyond just the wax figures—from the hair, familiar clothes, and accessories, too.
