Lightner Museum, Art museum in St. Augustine, Florida, US.
The Lightner Museum displays collections of fine art, furniture, mechanical musical instruments, and cut glass inside the former Hotel Alcazar building.
Chicago publisher Otto Lightner established the museum in 1948 after purchasing the Hotel Alcazar, which Henry Flagler constructed in 1888 as a luxury resort.
