Windmill Point Light

A light was established at Windmill Point in Alburg in 1830, most likely as a makeshift lantern on a post. The current 40-foot stone tower and light keeper's house were erected in 1858.

The lighthouse was deactivated in 1931 when a steel skeleton tower with an automatic beacon was constructed nearby. Windmill Point Light was relit in 2002.
