10. MUSEUM AT THE MARBLEHEAD LIGHTHOUSE STATE PARK. The Marblehead Lighthouse
Historical Society operates a museum in the Keeper's House at the Lighhouse State Park. This two
story frame house was built in 1880 to house the lighthouse keeper in four rooms on the first floor
and an assistant keeper in four rooms upstairs. An original keeper's house of native stone was built
in 1822 and razed in 1880. The museum is dedicated to preserve the history of the Village of Marblehead
and its historic lighthouse built in 1821. Marblehead Light is the oldest light in continuous operation on
the Great Lakes. It is said to be the most visited, photographed, and painted structure in the State of
Ohio. The museum has registered over 30,000 visitors annually since opening in 2000. The Society was
founded in 1998. The museum is open the same hours as the Lighthouse.
Memberships to the Society, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, are $10 for single and $25 for family. Applications
may be sent to Marblehead Lighthouse Historical Society at P.O. Box 144, Marblehead, OH 43440.
