DeBary Hall Historic Site
welcomes individuals, families, and larger groups of visitors. To
help you explore, we offer award-winning exhibits; multimedia
programs; and guided tours focusing on the St. Johns River region,
the winter house and lands, and Florida people who worked at the big
estate. At the Visitors Center, you can explore the historic St.
Johns river in an Imagidome Theater presentation that recaps some of
the history of the beautiful river and Frederick deBary's role in
its development. Trek along the spring-to-spring trail that
traverses land owned by Volusia County and the St. Johns River Water
Management District, and have a picnic in the new trailhead
pavilion. And, don't miss the new DeBary Hall gift shop full of
unique treasures.
