This lighthouse is located in Charleston, Oregon, 2.6 miles north of Cape Arago. While there were two preceding lighthouses on this site. However, because they constantly needed repairing and because sailors needed a better light, they were replaced by a third one, made of concrete and 44 ft. high. The present lighthouse was in first lit in 1934, automated in 1966, and deactivated in 2006.
