We have visited St. Augustine many times as a family, but we had never visited Potter's Wax Museum. We entered and decided to pay the admission to tour the museum. The admission fee is reasonable for a tourist town like St. Augustine. The Museum is in the location of the old town drug store, but it has been a wax museum for a very long time. It is located right near the old city gates and the parking garage. The wax figures are primarily of historical figures. There are presidents, famous authors, famous classical musicians, historical characters from ancient and medieval history, etc. There are some entertainment and sports figures (Michael Jordan, Star Wars, etc.), but they are by far the smallest segment in the museum.
The wax figures are all painstakingly crafted and most were very recognizable.
I have to say the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. I can highly recommend asking them questions and learning as much as possible from them. The visit was fun and much better than I initially expected. I can recommend the Wax Museum.
