Tenants Harbor Light
Tenants Harbor Light, Historical lighthouse in Knox County, United States.
The cylindrical stone tower of Tenants Harbor Light stands 8 meters tall with a white exterior and black lantern at its peak.
The United States Army Corps of Engineers constructed this maritime navigation aid in 1857, equipping it with a fourth-order Fresnel lens positioned 66 feet above water.
The lighthouse represents the maritime heritage of Maine's coastal communities and serves as a testament to 19th-century engineering achievements.
While the lighthouse remains under private ownership by the Wyeth family since 1978, visitors can view its exterior from designated public areas.
The structure functioned as an active navigation aid until 1934, when technological advancements led to its deactivation and subsequent auction by the government.
