Located on 19 acres (7.7 hectares) downtown, this college campus' Spanish Renaissance architecture is highlighted by the grand Ponce De Leon Hotel building. Built in 1885 by Henry Flagler, with an interior designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany, the hotel faced years of decline in the mid-20th century before being saved and converted into the liberal arts college in 1968.
Flagler College is a private liberal arts college in St. Augustine, Florida, United States. The school was founded in 1968 and offers 44 undergraduate majors and two master's programs. It also operated the Flagler College – Tallahassee Campus from 2000 to 2024.
