Lion’s Head Lighthouse

Lighthouse being hit with waves

Base of lighthouse

The Municipality is working quickly to rebuild the Lion’s Head Lighthouse which succumbed to winter storms early in the morning of January 12, 2020. MNBP will be welcoming donations and volunteer support in bringing this iconic structure back to life.  Restoration efforts are coming along well but there is much to do.  You can see the preliminary draft of the lighthouse with some minor modifications incorporated to increase the structure's strength and durability.  

From the beginning, there has been an emphasis on using local materials and local expertise to bring this together.  Additionally, staff are currently in conversation with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the Coast Guard to ensure that the new structure meets all the requirements for a navigational aid and the Municipality receives permission to begin construction.  

The generosity of residents and cottagers, past and present, has been widespread.  As we continue to receive donations and offers for volunteer labour, we anticipate the lighthouse will truly be rebuilt by the community.  

  1. Given popular demand, if you would like to lend financial support, MNBP will be accepting tax-deductible donations to help with reconstruction costs. Cash, cheque or credit card donations will be received by the Municipal Office at 56 Lindsay Road 5, Lion’s Head, Ontario, N0H 1W0, or by telephone - (519) 793-3522.
  2. To share your own story of the Lion’s Head Lighthouse or to volunteer, please send us an email at lighthouselegacies@northernbruce.ca
