Round Island Light, Coastal lighthouse in Pascagoula, US.
The Round Island Light stands 50 feet tall with a white brick base, featuring a black lantern at the top and red trim along its structure.
Constructed in 1859 at a cost of 7,130 dollars, this lighthouse guided vessels through Mississippi Sound until Hurricane Georges destroyed it in 1998.
The preservation and relocation of the lighthouse to U.S. Route 90 represents the commitment of Pascagoula residents to maintain their maritime heritage.
The restored structure now stands near U.S. Route 90 in Pascagoula, where visitors can examine the original lantern gallery and architectural elements.
During the Civil War, Confederate soldiers removed the fourth-order Fresnel lens from the lighthouse to prevent Union forces from using the signal.
