What To Expect

Potter's Wax Museum

The inspiration behind Potter's Wax Museum came from a childhood trip to London taken by founder, George L. Potter. As a child, he was mesmerized by the life like figures and wanted to share his enjoyment with the American public. In 1947, Potter began contracting with GEMS of London, a noted wax studio, to create one of a kind figures for his museum. Potter employed artists from all over Europe to aide in this project with the wax imported from France, hair from Italy, and the sculpting taking place in Belgium. Opening it's doors in 1949, Potter's Wax Museum has served as an interactive, educational and fun attraction for visitors to the ancient city. At Potter's, you can interact with historic figures such as, Ponce de Leon, Albert Einstein, and Princess Diana, take a picture with Michael Jordon or Angelina Jolie; or imagine you are on set with Harry Potter and "He Who Must Not Be Named." Enjoy this unique St Augustine attraction.

I probably would have given this 5 stars if not for the air quality inside the museum, which needs improvement. Aside from that, we loved this museum! The staff was extremely knowledgeable and took time to answer our questions in depth. The exhibits are wonderfully done. I was amazed at the costumes and level of detail.

The old building is very cool. Staff were friendly and attentive. The sculptures were good. Many different types, star wars, Harry Potter, kings, queens, Cleopatra wild west. We had fun. Maybe 30 min max.

If you enjoy wax museums, this is a worth it stop. The history alone was worth the admission! Some of the figures were not "wow" realistic, but then again it is wax. I did enjoy the how each era or theme was displayed - Presidents, Kings, Horror, Royalty etc. We received our tickets as part of a "trolley tour" - not sure we would have found it if not.
