A historic lighthouse located in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. Built in 1856, it is the oldest surviving spiral pile lighthouse in the Chesapeake Bay area. Originally built at the entrance of the Patapsco River in Chesapeake Bay, it was later relocated to its current location and became part of the Baltimore Maritime Museum. The design is unique, entirely made of iron and featuring a circular design, which is unique among the spiral pile lighthouses in the Chesapeake Bay area. It is also one of the earliest lighthouses to use prefabricated components, which allows certain components to be transported to the site and quickly assembled. It is an important symbol of the maritime history of the United States.
