Lighthouses are one of those amazing pieces of Americana that fascinate all of us endlessly. Of course, these structures aren’t to be found only in the United States—they’re all over the world, and all throughout history, too. But here in the States, we have a rich tradition surrounding lighthouses, with many iconic ones featuring interesting stories. You’ll find them coast to coast, on the Great Lakes, and elsewhere. There’s even at least one lighthouse on the Mississippi River, the Mark Twain lighthouse in Hannibal, Missouri.
If you’re like me, then you’re probably interested in learning more about the history of lighthouses. So let’s dive in, starting with their earliest origins, and then I’ll show you how they became so iconic in the United States.
