OVERVIEW

The surviving coquina pillars were raised in 1808 at the northern end of the city, marking the entrance through the Cubo defensive line the Spanish had first built after the British burned St. Augustine in 1702.

REPORTED ACTIVITY

A recurring legend describes "Elizabeth," a girl said to have died in a yellow-fever epidemic, seen near the gates; visitors report a child-like figure and a sense of being watched after dark.

VISITING

A public landmark open at all times at the top of St. George Street.
