NORTHEAST FLORIDA HERITAGE SITES

Northeast Florida heritage begins with the early native Americans who dwelled in the area 12,000 years ago.

The area has been under 8 flags in its long history.

Most of Northeast Florida was settled mainly by southerners who came down from Georgia and the Carolinas after the Civil War. The region is still very southern in culture.

This heritage is shared by all 7 counties in North Central Florida. Each county has its fair share of sites that are an important part of Florida history.

The website of the State of Florida Division of Historical Resources provides direct links to each of these Northeast Florida heritage sites.

There you will find details about the history and heritage of each site.

You will also find addresses, directions and hours of operation.

The State website is organized by County, so just click on the Northeast Florida county of your interest.

The State of Florida website is out of order as of 7-7-09. I will link to it again when it is working.
