Built along the Oregon coast between 1870 and 1896, the Oregon lighthouses warned mariners of hazards along the state's rough and often rocky coast. Each of the Oregon lighthouses has unique characteristics, and a unique history. Most were automated in the 1960s, decommissioned or abandoned, but thanks to concerned citizens, they were not lost. Today, seven of the nine surviving Oregon lighthouses are open to the public. |
