Dice Head Light

Dyce Head Light is a lighthouse located at the southernmost point of the Castine peninsula in Hancock County, Maine. Built in 1829 to guide vessels along the Penobscot River and into Castine Harbor, the lighthouse served the region's flourishing shipbuilding and lumber trade until its deactivation in 1937. After a 475-foot (145 m) skeleton tower that replaced it was destroyed by a microburst in 2007, the original lighthouse was reactivated in 2008 and continues to operate today.
