The City Gates, property of the National Park Service, were built of coquina in 1807: the barrier having originally been of wood in 1743. The Castillo de San Marcos fort was later designated a National Monument in 1924. The Monument site consists of 20.5 acres and includes a reconstructed section of the walled defense line surrounding the city of St. Augustine incorporating the original city gate.
