Description: Round Island Light, located off the coast of Mackinac Island in Michigan's Lake Huron, is a historic lighthouse built in 1895 to aid navigation through the Straits of Mackinac. The red-brick structure with a white tower has become an iconic symbol of the region. It was automated in 1924 and decommissioned in 1947, later falling into disrepair until preservation efforts began in the 1970s. Now restored, the lighthouse is part of the Hiawatha National Forest and serves as a picturesque landmark visible from Mackinac Island and surrounding waters, attracting visitors and history enthusiasts alike.
