The tour guides are lively, with knowledge to spare, They’ll take you through rooms with stories so rare. From bloodletting tools to herbs in a jar, You’ll learn how they healed both near and far. The setting’s so quaint, with a charm all its own, In this historical gem, the past has grown. You’ll feel the old spirits, the echoes of pain, And leave with a smile, perhaps a bit of brain! So wander inside, let curiosity lead, The Spanish Military Hospital is just what you need. A blend of the eerie, the wise, and the fun, It’s a whimsical journey for everyone!

"Spanish Military Hospital - great visit - Jose G- Best guide/docent ever!"

Reviewed May 23, 2024

Wow, I've been to a lot of museums, but the guide (Jose) I had yesterday at Spanish Military Hospital really did an awesome job. He is extremely passionate and knows his stuff. As luck would have it, I was the only person on the last tour/demo of the day, so he completely personalized my experience and focused on several questions I had about the way the hospital was administered. It was supposed to be a 40-50 minute tour, but he talked to me for 70+ minutes, we went down several interesting rabbit holes of discussion topics. This was obviously much more than a guy referring to a script he had been provided. His knowledge base ran deep. Thank you Jose, this was the highlight of my trip to St Aug!
