Pirate - Fernandina Beach, Florida - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

The Palace holds the title of "Florida's Oldest" continuously operated drinking establishment. According to local lore, it was the last bar in Florida to close on the eve of Prohibition. A shrewd businessman, Hirth stored up for a last hurrah selling till midnight and grossing $60,000 in a single day.

Another first for the Palace, it was the first hard liquor bar to begin serving Coca-Cola, around 1905.
