Maitland

Built around Fort Maitland, a U.S. Army post established during the Second Seminole War, Maitland grew into a lakeside city in Central Florida. Lake Maitland, part of the Winter Park Chain of Lakes, gives the city a water-oriented setting within the Orlando metropolitan area. Its cultural landmark is the Maitland Art Center, founded in 1937 by artist and architect Jules André Smith. Noted for its Mayan Revival architecture, the complex is a National Historic Landmark. The Art & History Museums of Maitland also maintain collections and historic buildings here. Find related webcams around the Winter Park Chain of Lakes to build a fuller picture of Central Florida.
