Geschichte
Atsena Otie Key is an island and ghost town one-half mile offshore of Cedar Key, Florida. The island, called Depot Key at the time, was the site of a US Army post during the Second Seminole War. The island was renamed after the war and was the site of the town of Atsena Otie in the latter half of the 19th century until it was largely destroyed by a hurricane in 1896. The island now includes a walking trail, swimming area, and ruins of the Eberhard Faber mill. The property is part of the Cedar Key National Wildlife Refuge and is managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
