The well was used from 1823 to the early 1880's. The remnants lay buried and forgotten until City of St. Augustine Public Works employees discovered the well, with assistance from the St. Augustine Archaeological Association, while renovating the historic Plaza de las Constitucion in 1995. The well was reconstructed using archaeological data and an 1879 photograph.
