Summary
editDescriptionCape Blanco Lighthouse (15184746518).jpg |
Our tour shows off the Fresnel lens inside the Cape Blanco Lighthouse. The lens has been in place since 1935, though the lighthouse was built in 1870. Height: At 256 feet above sea level, Cape Blanco's light is the highest of any in Oregon. The 59-foot lighthouse tower sits atop a 200-foot cliff. Built: The lighthouse was constructed from materials on site and materials off-loaded from ships that would anchor off its southern cliffs. It became operational on Dec. 20, 1870, and is the oldest continuously operating lighthouse on the Oregon Coast. Light: The six-foot, eight-inch-tall lens was hand made in France by Augustin Jean Fresnel and -- as it turns -- it flashes for 1.8 seconds every 18.2 seconds. The 320,000-candlepower light is visible 28 miles out to sea. The light was switched from oil to electricity in 1936 and runs on 1,000-watt bulbs.
