Goderich is the oldest Canadian light station on Lake Huron and first consisted of a pair of range lights established in the early 1830s.

The Goderich lighthouse, the first on the Canadian side of Lake Huron, opened in 1847 with a tower and the keeper’s house.

Located on a bluff overlooking Lake Huron in Goderich.
