Munising Front Range Light, Steel lighthouse in Munising, United States
The white conical Munising Front Range Light stands 18 meters tall on the southern shore of Lake Superior, featuring an octagonal lantern room with a gallery.
Built in 1908 to replace the Grand Island Harbor Lighthouse, this steel structure received federal funding of 15,000 dollars for its construction and equipment.
The lighthouse represents the maritime heritage of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where navigation structures guided vessels through the channels of Lake Superior.
Located at the junction of Highway 28 and Hemlock Street, this active lighthouse maintains its function guiding ships through the east channel of Munising Bay.
The front range light works together with a rear tower situated on a hillside, creating aligned beams that direct maritime traffic into the harbor.
