| This very interesting picture from the Library of Congress is undated. This could be from the Spanish American war or when the Apachies were held at the Fort. |

| Another Library of Congress photo showing the Castillo in 1910. |
| On the outer wall of the Castillo is an escutcheon bearing the Arms of Spain and the following legend translated as: "Don Fredinand VI., being King of Spain, and the Field Marshal Don Alonzo Fernando Hereda being Governor and Captain-General of this place, San Augustin of Florida, and its province, this fort was finished in the year 1756. The works were directed by the Captain-Engineer, Don Pedro de Brozas of Garay." |
