lighthouse preservation
Lighthouse preservation involves the efforts to maintain and restore historic lighthouses that have significant cultural and architectural value. These structures, often located along coastlines, serve as important navigational aids for maritime activities. Preservation efforts can include repairing the building, restoring the light mechanisms, and ensuring the surrounding environment is protected.
Many lighthouses are at risk due to erosion, neglect, and changing technology. Organizations and local communities often collaborate to secure funding and resources for preservation projects. By maintaining these landmarks, we not only honor maritime history but also promote tourism and education about lighthouse heritage.
