Old Mackinac - MI

Approval was given to build a sentinel near Mackinaw City in 1891. A brick keepers dwelling and attached 40-foot tower were constructed like a small European castle on the site. A fourth order lens was housed in the tower. In 1957 a long awaited bridge was built between Michigan’s Upper and Lower Peninsulas making the lighthouse obsolete. The building now serves as a museum.
