Ripley's Believe It or Not! St. Augustine

Ripley's is great fun for the whole family. Tons of stuff to look at cool stuff to learn about. I'd recommend it to any families. Or maybe if you're just into oddities.

Walk with Giants

Overlooking the Castle, Ripley’s David stands 17-feet tall and weighs over 20,000 pounds! One of only two exact replicas in the world, he was carved from a solid piece of marble from the same quarry Michelangelo acquired the rock for his masterpiece. He’s a marvel that must be seen to be believed!
Feel Far Out

Launch out-of-this-world and get an up-close look at Chewbacca's fur, wonder over a lunar space capsule made entirely from Erector sets, and don't forget to look up! Hanging from the Castle's stained-glass atrium is a replica of the International Space Station, created with more than 240,000 matchsticks!
