Eagle Bluff Lighthouse

Eagle Bluff Light

A red-brick lighthouse completed in 1868, perched on a lakeside cliff in Peninsula State Park, with a tour of the keeper's house.

Eagle Bluff Lighthouse was built in 1868. Its square red-brick tower is joined to the keeper's residence and stands on a limestone cliff along the western shore of Green Bay. It still serves as a navigational aid. The Door County Historical Society operates the site and offers tours of about 30 minutes from May to mid-October. The tours showcase the furnishings and daily life of a 19th-century lighthouse keeper's family. Admission is about 10 US dollars. The lighthouse sits along Shore Road in Peninsula State Park. A state park vehicle day pass is required, and the visit can be combined with the park's cycling routes.
