Holland Harbor Light, Lighthouse in Park Township, Michigan, US.

The red painted steel and wood lighthouse stands 13 meters tall at the entrance of a channel connecting Lake Michigan with Lake Macatawa.

The original wooden structure from 1872 underwent several transformations, including a steel tower addition in 1907 and automation of its light system in 1932.

The lighthouse represents the maritime heritage of Dutch settlers who manually excavated the channel to Lake Michigan, leading to increased water transportation by 1900.

Visitors can view the lighthouse from Holland State Park across the channel, as direct access requires crossing private property with restricted admission.

Local citizens formed the Holland Harbor Lighthouse Historical Commission in 1970 to save the structure when the Coast Guard suggested its abandonment.
