Where are my Florida history loving explorers?! đ
In celebration of the very first anniversary of the reconstructed 1738 fort at Fort Mose Historic State Park, I bring you the Fort Mose HSP sticker! Now available on my website, Etsy store as well as through a donation through the Florida State Park Foundation!
Tucked away just 3 miles north of the heart of historic downtown St. Augustine, you will find an absolute treasure trove of history! Fort Mose Historic State Park was the very first African settlement site that offered freedom dating back to 1738; many decades before the Underground Railroad is thought to have been started. Florida was under Spanish rule at the time and it was Spainâs intent to undermine the British economy and increase Spainâs population and militia. In 1763, the residents of Fort Mose fled to Cuba, fearing their freedom with Florida now being under British rule.
Today, experience living history through live reenactments and even walk in historyâs footsteps in the 1738 replica fort that once stood at Fort Mose.
