Lighthouse · Lake Erie Islands, Ohio
Port Clinton Lighthouse
The tower was first lit in 1896 and no longer serves as a light for ships. The small wooden pierhead lighthouse was moved off the pier in 1952 and now stands restored at the north end of Water Works Park in Port Clinton, where a private light shows in it.
