Port Clinton Light

Port Clinton Light is a lighthouse in Port Clinton, Ohio, United States at the northern end of Water Works Park. It was previously located on the outer end of the west pier which is located at the city's harbor entrance. This lighthouse has two incarnations that were built with different materials.

Only the present structure survives as it was moved to a marina and replaced by a skeleton tower in 1952. The marina then sold the lighthouse back to the city, and it was placed in the park fully restored. At just 20 ft (6.1 m), Port Clinton Light is recorded as the shortest lighthouse in the state.
