Michigan’s Oldest Lighthouse to Open to the Public Saturday
(PORT HURON, Mich.) -- Michigan’s oldest lighthouse is slated to open to the public Saturday after four years and $700,000 in renovations.
The Detroit Free Press reports that the opening of the Ft. Gratiot Light, built in 1829, is expected to draw nearly 1,000 people to the mouth of the St. Clair River.
Tours of the second-oldest lighthouse on the Great Lakes—behind Ohio’s Marblehead Light on Lake Erie—cost $5 per person.
