Ponce Inlet Lighthouse & Museum

Completed in 1887, this was one
of the first U.S. oil houses built to
hold kerosene. A year's supply
was kept in 504 brass 5-gallon
cans on wall racks. The tanks
you see were installed in 1927.
In 1970, vandals stole the copper
roof and set the building afire. It
was restored by the Lighthouse
Preservation Association.
in 1989.
