Gallegos House History

The Gallegos House is a reconstructed example of a First Spanish Period (1565-1763) structure. The original home was built around 1720, and was owned by the Gallegos family until 1763. The structure was demolished during the British Period (1764-1784). The Gallegos House was reconstructed by the State of Florida in 1963.
