St. Augustine, Florida, the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in the continental United States, was founded in 1565 by Spanish explorer Pedro Menéndez de Avilés. The initial construction of the settlement took several years, with significant structures like the Castillo de San Marcos taking over 20 years to complete, starting in 1672 and finishing in 1695. The city has evolved over centuries, with ongoing developments and restorations reflecting its rich history.
