Lighthouse · Whitefish Point, Michigan
Point Iroquois Lighthouse
The tower was first lit in 1870 and no longer serves as a light for ships. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Dark since 1962, when the Canadian Gros Cap Reefs light took over, it is a museum in Hiawatha National Forest on Whitefish Bay, and the tower is open to climb in summer.
