Historic Pensacola Village
Within the Seville Square Historic District is this complex of several museums and historic homes whose indoor and outdoor exhibits trace the area's history back 450 years. The Museum of Industry ( 200 E. Zaragoza St.), in a late-19th-century warehouse, has permanent exhibits dedicated to the lumber, maritime, and shipping industries—once mainstays of Pensacola's economy. A reproduction of a 19th-century streetscape is displayed in the Museum of Commerce ( 201 E. Zaragoza St.).
Strolling through the area gives you a good (and free) look at many architectural styles, but to enter some of the buildings you must purchase an all-inclusive ticket online or at Tivoli High House Shop, the Pensacola Museum of Art, the Pensacola Museum of History, or the Pensacola Children's Museum. Insightful, 60- to 90-minute, guided tours are offered Tuesday through Saturday at 11 am and 1 pm. Also, be sure to check on Victorian Holiday Traditions, Haunted Ghost tours, and other seasonal offerings.
