Doubling Point Light, Wooden lighthouse on Kennebec River, Maine, United States.
The octagonal white tower with wooden shingles stands at a strategic bend in the Kennebec River, guiding vessels through the waterway.
The United States Army Corps of Engineers constructed this lighthouse in 1898 to enhance navigation along the Kennebec River near Bath Iron Works.
The lighthouse represents the maritime heritage of Maine's coastal communities, demonstrating the importance of river navigation in regional development.
Visitors can reach the lighthouse by following Route 127 south from Woolwich to Arrowsic Island and parking near the designated viewing area.
The tower was moved to its current location in 1899, followed by the relocation of the keeper's house in 1901 for improved accessibility.
