Did you know the Sheboygan Lighthouse burned down?

Sheboygan's lighthouse has quite the history! The original lighthouse was built on North Point in 1839, but shoreline erosion threatened the structure, so a replacement was built in 1860. As Sheboygan's harbor continued to grow, a pierhead lighthouse was added in 1873, only to be destroyed by fire just seven years later. It was quickly rebuilt and, as the harbor expanded, the lighthouse was moved farther out on the pier multiple times before finally being relocated to its current home on the north breakwater in 1915, over 600 feet from where it started.
Today, the Sheboygan Breakwater Lighthouse remains an active aid to navigation and one of our city's most recognizable landmarks. Next time you take a walk along the lakefront, you're looking at nearly two centuries of maritime history! 🌊

You can find lots of Lighthouse themed items in our gift shop to commemorate this iconic symbol of Sheboygan.
