Michigan City: FUN FACT

Michigan City boasts the oldest operating lighthouse on the Great Lakes! Built in 1858 and still functioning today, the Michigan City East Light stands as a testament to the city's rich maritime history. The lighthouse originally housed both a keeper and an assistant keeper, and the original keeper's house was even remodeled in 1904 to become a duplex! Today, the lighthouse is a popular tourist attraction and offers tours that delve into its fascinating history.
