The Maine Lighthouse Museum is the largest museum of its kind in the nation. It is unique in that it keeps the nations heritage of lighthouses and lighthouse keepers for future generations to enjoy.
Funds to support the Museum are being raised through
the sale of dedication bricks that will become a permanent part
of the landscaped walkway and stairway entrance apron. The
restoration of the current walkway is expected to begin in late
spring. Once completed the brick walkway with your dedication
will last for generations. Your help with making this project a
success is urgently needed.

Many Unite to Help the Lighthouse Museum Pull Through!
The Maine Lighthouse Museum (MLM) is pleased to report a very positive reaction to the news in May of last year that it might have to close its doors. On the financial side, donations have allowed the museum to continue to pay its back bills. As donations continue to come in, MLM is looking forward to the future when it can expect to operate in the black. Many of the donations came from outside Maine driven by the support of the Lighthouse Digest publication. Future fund raising plans are taking shape, and careful management and cost cutting measures have helped to streamline expenditures. Read more . . .
