Summary
editDescriptionChebucto Head Lighthouse (23238949363).jpg |
English: Chebucto Head has had four different lighthouses and many keeper's houses. The first lighthouse at Chebucto Head, was built in 1872.
The 3rd and wartime lighthouse had to be constructed when the Chebucto Head gun battery was built at the site. At this time a lighthouse at the head was needed to help guide the convoy vessels in and out of Halifax Harbour. Built to safeguard the movement of Battle of the Atlantic Convoys, it is directly associated with an important national event in Canadian history. The lighthouse today (4th) is a very popular destination for hikers, shipwreck divers and people for a great view of the ocean, passing ships and whales.
