Lighthouse · Door Peninsula, Wisconsin
Baileys Harbor Lighthouse
The tower was first lit in 1853 and no longer serves as a light for ships. Built in 1852 and dark since 1869, it is one of the few lighthouses left with a birdcage lantern; it stands on privately owned land at the mouth of Baileys Harbor and is not open.

How to see it
Above water and inside the horizon from Toft Point, 2.4 km (1.5 mi) away, so on a clear day it can be seen from there, and CoastFinder puts a label on it.
On the website for now. Wisconsin's lighthouses are in the web viewer first, and they are coming to the CoastFinder app, which covers the North Carolina coast today. Follow @coastfinderapp to hear when Wisconsin arrives.
