Sheffield Island Lighthouse
Sheffield Island Lighthouse in Norwalk, Connecticut, was established as an active lighthouse in 1868 till it was retired in 1902, and today, as a listed lighthouse, is a museum and nature preserve that is beautifully maintained by willing volunteers. Lighting and accessibility on the island has been drastically improved for the benefit of visitors, and the tower light installed in the lighthouse is not used as a navigation aid, but as a welcoming beacon and reminder of the important part that this lighthouse has played in guiding boats and ships in the past. There are several walking trails around Sheffield Island Lighthouse, and after an interesting visit to our lighthouse museum, visitors can enjoy relaxing picnic lunches on the island.
