Historical Florida

Florida’s Adventure Coast, Brooksville-Weeki Wachee, offers many interesting destinations of historical significance, along with cultural locations. Built in 1845, the Chinsegut Hill Historic Site is a stately two-story manor house poised atop one of central Florida’s highest hilltops. It is the centerpiece of a 114-acre estate surrounded by ancient Spanish moss-draped oaks and natural habitat.
