 Sheboygan Breakwater, WI
Description: The present cast-iron Sheboygan Lighthouse commenced operation in 1905 and was moved to the end of the breakwater in 1915. Before this time, Sheboygan had been served by a second lighthouse located on North Point, the prominence one mile north of the harbor. The North Point Lighthouse was deactivated in 1904, and in 1916, the keeper's dwelling was relocated just a few blocks inland from the bluff, where it has since been used as a residence.


Location: Located at the end of the north breakwater in Sheboygan's harbor.
Latitude: 43.74955
