The coat of arms above this gateway was a simplified form of the heraldry used by the Kingdoms of Castille and Leon. The coat of arms is quite weathered, and much of the artistic detail has been lost. The fort is a National Monument, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.Galleries:Castillo de San Marcos, Forts and Fortifications, St. Augustine, St. JohnsKeywords:castillo de san marcos, coat of arms, fort, fort marion, heraldry, kingdoms of castille and leon, main gate, saint augustine, st. augustinePhoto Location: St. Augustine, FloridaPhotographer: Dr. Roy WinkelmanDate of Photo: 10/08/2011Device Make: CanonDevice Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark IIExposure Time: 0.0166667F Number: 13Original Dimensions: 3744×5616Picture Orientation: PortraitGPS Coordinates: 29°53'52.65"N 81°18'43.88"WPicture Number: 25159
