Seul Choix Light, Maritime beacon in Mueller Township, United States.
The white brick lighthouse rises 23 meters above Lake Michigan, featuring an Italianate design with decorative brackets and a third-order Fresnel lens.
The United States Lighthouse Board commissioned architect Orlando Metcalfe Poe to design this navigational structure, which began operations in 1892.
The structure exhibits French influence through its name Seul Choix, meaning 'only choice' in reference to the single safe harbor in the area.
Visitors can explore the lighthouse museum from Memorial Day through mid-October, with guided tours available daily until 5:30 PM.
The lighthouse maintains its original third-order Fresnel lens, producing white flashes every six seconds that reach vessels up to 16 nautical miles away.
