Race Point Light was first established in 1816 and the original light was a 25 foot rubblestone tower that featured one of the earliest rotating beacons.
In 1858 the light received a 4th order Fresnel lens and in 1874, a second keeper’s quarters.
After significant deterioration of the original tower, it was replaced in 1876 with a 45-foot tall cast iron tower lined with brick and equipped with a Fresnel lens.The original keeper’s stone house was removed and replaced with one made of wood
In 1960 the larger keeper’s house was removed and the other house updated.
In 1972 the light was automated.
In 1995, the keeper’s house was again updated and overnight stays were offered in the rooms.
Currently, the facility is operated by both a solar electrical system and a wind turbine back-up generator.
