Old Michigan City Lighthouse
The tower was first lit in 1858 and no longer serves as a light for ships. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The lighthouse in Washington Park, dark since its lantern moved to the east pier in 1904, is now the Old Lighthouse Museum, open most afternoons except in winter.
