Historic Stone Lighthouse in Rose Blanche

With the construction completed in 1873, and restored in 1999, it's the only remaining structure from the community's earliest days. The historic old stone lighthouse is located on what the townsfolk lovingly call "The Neck" in Rose Blanche, Newfoundland and Labrador.


Historic Stone Lighthouse in Rose Blanche, Newfoundland and Labrador. Reconstructed fully in 1999 and furnished with 19th century reproduced furniture and local antiques, this lighthouse is a must see for all lighthouse enthusiasts. One remarkable feature is the stone steps within the tower walls which kept the tower from collapsing after it was abandoned. The light on display now, a gift from the Canadian Coast Guard, is a 6th order Fresnel lens and is believed to be one of only 27 in existence.
