In 1999, the Cape Hatteras lighthouse had to be moved from its original location at the edge of the ocean to safer ground 2,900 feet (880 m) inland, and 1,500 feet (460 m) from the shoreline. Due to erosion of the shore, the lighthouse was just 15 feet (4.6 m) from the ocean's edge and was in imminent danger.
After being slightly damaged by Confederate troops early in the Civil War, the lighthouse was returned to duty in 1862 by Union forces. Nineteen years later, in 1881, a second tower was built near the original Cape Henry Light. That cylindrical tower, made of cast iron, stands 163 feet tall. The new lighthouse was fitted with a first-order Fresnel lens that casts its light far out on the waters of the bay. The original Cape Henry Light still stands, and can be seen near its replacement tower. To learn more about vacation destinations and landmarks, see:
