Summary

Description

Split Rock Lighthouse — located along the North Shore of Lake Superior, near Two Harbors, Minnesota.

  • Shipwrecks from a mighty 1905 November gale prompted this rugged landmark’s construction. Completed by the U.S. Lighthouse Service in 1910, Split Rock Light Station was soon one of Minnesota’s best known landmarks.
  • Restored to its 1920s appearance, the lighthouse offers a glimpse of lighthouse life in this remote and spectacular setting.
