Artist's Description
The Sherwood Point Light was built in the late 1800s to mark the northern entrance to the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal. The two and a half story light station, built to withstand Lake Michigan's fury, was constructed with 12 inch thick walls and heavy cast iron lantern room sections. A new fourth order Fresnel lens was installed, lasting well into the next century. Today the lighthouse remains on private U. S. Coast Guard property, with limited visitation. Here in Wisconsin's Door County, lighthouses remain a large part of heritage tourism and unique travel experiences.
