Marblehead Light
Landmark
A cast-iron lighthouse built in 1895, replacing earlier navigational markers at the entrance to Marblehead Harbor. While the current structure postdates the Revolution, the point it occupies has guided mariners for centuries. The lighthouse offers views of the coastline between Marblehead and Salem.
