Long Tail Point Light, Historic lighthouse in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
The Long Tail Point Light features a limestone structure with an octagonal lantern room positioned at the southern end of Green Bay.
The initial lighthouse construction in 1848 marked a crucial development for maritime navigation, using fieldstone gathered from Bay Settlement across the shore.
The lighthouse stands as a testament to maritime engineering, representing the evolution of navigational technology from oil lamps to Fresnel lenses.
The lighthouse operated with one keeper maintaining the light and fog signals until 1936, when automation systems took over the operations.
Despite multiple reconstruction attempts due to rising water levels, the original 1848 stone tower base remains visible on the sandy peninsula.
