Long Point Light, Maritime lighthouse in Provincetown, United States
Long Point Light consists of a white square brick tower standing 12 meters tall at the northeastern tip of Provincetown Harbor entrance.
The original lighthouse, constructed in 1827, featured an octagonal lantern atop a wooden keeper's house before being replaced by the current structure in 1875.
The lighthouse marked the location of a former village with a school, post office, and fishing community until families relocated across the harbor in the 1850s.
Visitors can reach the lighthouse grounds through small boat rentals or by walking three miles along the Provincetown Causeway from the mainland.
The lighthouse received solar power upgrades in 1982, becoming one of the first Massachusetts lighthouses to incorporate solar energy technology.
