While you need an appointment to visit the grounds, Castle Otttis is also easily admired from a distance.

In downtown St. Augustine, the Lightner Museum sits in the former Alcazar Hotel, which was once a Spanish Renaissance Revival hotel but now resides on the National Register of Historic Places. Today, it’s home to an array of antiques, including 19th-century American and European paintings, mechanical musical instruments of the Victorian era, and special exhibits. The permanent collection, spanning four floors, is brimming with historical artifacts primarily from the gilded age and Victorian era.
