Marshall Point Lighthouse

Marshall Point Lighthouse

Port Clyde, Maine
Built in 1858

This lighthouse replaced an earlier soapstone structure that had been built
in 1832. The present lighthouse keeper's house was built in 1895 and
now houses the Marshall Point Lighthouse Museum. A scene from the
movie “Forrest Gump” was filmed at the Lighthouse in 1993 and this
lighthouse was featured in the children's book “Nellie the Lighthouse Dog.”
