Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse
Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse, Navigation lighthouse on Lake Michigan in Kewaunee, United States.
The white lighthouse structure, reaching 13 meters in height, stands at the entrance of Kewaunee Harbor, marking the path for vessels.
Built in 1891, the lighthouse featured an open frame tower and fog signal building, connected by a second-floor corridor for maritime operations.
The Friends of the Kewaunee Pierhead Lighthouse organization maintains the structure's legacy through educational tours and community programs.
The lighthouse operates with a modern LED light system installed in 2019, while the original Fresnel lens is displayed at Kewaunee County History Center.
The 1919 Type F Diaphone fog horn recording from this lighthouse earned recognition in the National Recording Registry of Library of Congress.
