St. Joseph North Pier Inner and Outer Lights
St. Joseph North Pier Inner and Outer Lights, Twin lighthouse structures on Lake Michigan pier in St. Joseph, United States.
Two connected navigation lights mark the entrance to St. Joseph River, consisting of a 57-foot inner tower and 35-foot outer tower at the pier end.
The original lighthouse from 1832 was replaced with the current structures in 1906, guiding ships through challenging waters until their decommission in 2005.
The United States Postal Service recognized these maritime beacons by featuring them on a commemorative stamp in the 1995 Great Lakes Lighthouses series.
The restored lighthouses remain accessible to visitors via the north pier, offering close-up views and photography opportunities throughout the year.
The inner light features an eight-sided design with red, black, and white markings, while the outer light maintains a cylindrical form with black and white patterns.
