拉丁頓燈塔

拉丁頓燈塔（Ludington Light）一個57英尺（17米）高的大鋼鍍燈塔，位於美國密西根州拉丁頓。

拉丁頓燈塔位於密西根湖東岸，拉丁頓燈塔位佩爾馬凱特港於防波堤上。因為佩爾馬凱特河與密歇根湖的北防波堤，拉丁頓燈塔有時也被稱為拉丁頓北防波堤燈塔。拉丁頓燈塔本身是一個船頭狀結構，其目的是打破波浪。

拉丁頓燈塔於1871年成立。拉丁頓燈塔於1924年開始運作。拉丁頓燈塔在1972年自動化。拉丁頓燈塔融入輕鋼結構和鋼筋混凝土。拉丁頓燈塔有一個方形錐體的形式，為白色與黑色的建築。拉丁頓燈塔原來的鏡頭是四階菲涅耳透鏡，菲涅耳透鏡於1995年10月17日被移除，由海塗信號300毫米亞克力光纖取代。
