WHERE IN THE WORLD?
Set in Stone
BUILT IN THE EARLY 1870S, this Registered Heritage Structure is one of the last remaining granite lighthouses in Atlantic Canada. It was in operation for more than 70 years before being decommissioned in the 1940s and falling into near ruin. Following a full restoration in the 1990s, it’s now open seasonally to visitors looking to take in the rugged coastal views from atop the lighthouse’s spiral stone staircase.
