Home to the largest amount of Tiffany glass actually in use, even in the cafeteria! The former Hotel Ponce de Leon was the first hotel built by Henry Flagler in Saint Augustine. The rich and famous came to spend the season in one of the nation's first electrified buildings. The tour is well worth it and ends up in a room with a ceiling painted the original Tiffany blue and lit by Tiffany Austrian crystal chandeliers.

Celebrating 40 years of providing educational excellence, Flagler College offers 26 majors and 30 minors in selected studies emphasizing liberal arts, education, and business. Located in what was once Henry Flagler’s first St. Augustine hotel, the Ponce de Leon, the college operates tours for both visitors and prospective students. Jaws will drop at the sight of such incredible architecture which has been painstakingly preserved through the years. The campus grounds are equally impressive with their rows of towering palms and well-kept gardens. With the purchase of the Florida East Coast Railway building west of town (now converted into dormitories and offices), the new student center on Sevilla Street, and expansions of the art building and galleries, Flagler College is continually expanding both its presence in town and opportunities for its students.
