Old Presque Isle Light
Presque Isle County, US
The Old Presque Isle Light was the first lighthouse in the Presque Isle, Michigan, area, built in 1840, supported physically by two-thirds stone and one-third brick, and supported financially by funds appropriated by Congress two years earlier of $5,000. The tower and dwelling did not last long in t
he harsh weather, however, and by 1867 they were deteriorated enough for Congress to find need for a newer station. It presently is not operational and is a museum.
