The Plaza was an essential element <strong>of</strong> the Spanish colonial town plan for the town <strong>of</strong> Fernandina.<br />

This site is named as a contributing property in the National Register <strong>of</strong> Historic Places' 1990 listing<br />

for the Old Town Fernandina Historic Site. The park contains the largest known undeveloped<br />

portion <strong>of</strong> the site <strong>of</strong> Spanish municipal and military activity dating from the late 1780s. Most <strong>of</strong><br />

the original site is now an open grassy area designated by a State <strong>of</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> Historic Marker.<br />

Visitors can enjoy a leisurely picnic on the grass, with a view <strong>of</strong> Victorian era homes and the Amelia<br />

River<br />
