Crisp Point Light, Historical lighthouse on Lake Superior shore in Luce County, US.
The white brick tower rises 58 feet above Lake Superior, featuring a modern LED marine light that guides vessels through the treacherous waters.
Built in 1904 with a fourth-order Fresnel lens, the lighthouse served as Life Saving Station Number Ten, protecting ships from the dangerous Lake Superior shoreline.
The Crisp Point Light Historical Society maintains the site, preserving maritime heritage through educational programs and guided tours of the restored tower.
Visitors can access the lighthouse grounds year-round, but the visitor center and facilities operate only from May through October due to seasonal conditions.
The structure survived severe erosion that destroyed most original buildings, leaving only the tower and one entrance room wall standing until preservation efforts began.
