Battery Point Light #LH311
Battery Point Lighthouse is a Cape Cod style lighthouse located in Cresent City, California. A lighthouse was needed here because it became a port of entry for the Oregon Territory's gold country. The government agreed to the lighthouse and on May 15, 1855, Congress set aside $15,000 to build the lighthouse. The site that was chosen is only accessible at low tide, it is an island at high tide. | |
