Peche Island Rear Range Light, originally established in 1908 off Peche Island, Ontario, is a historic lighthouse that played a vital role in guiding vessels through the Lake St. Clair channel. After being decommissioned in 1982, the 60-foot lighthouse was relocated to Marine City, Michigan, where it now stands as a restored landmark, cherished by locals and visitors alike for its significant contribution to the region's Great Lakes history.
With a diameter of 14 feet and a weight of 35 tons, the Peche Island Rear Range Light served as a beacon of safety for 75 years. Today, a new skeleton tower holds the light that once illuminated the waters, while the old lighthouse stands proudly on the shoreline, serving as a testament to the rich maritime heritage of Marine City.
