Exploring the History of North Head Lighthouse and Its Surroundings

We visit the North Head Lighthouse and a Fort Canby artillery observation bunker at Cape Disappointment State Park. On this episode of Searching for History, Erin and I visit North Head Lighthouse and a small portion of Fort Canby located at Cape Disappointment State Park, in the far southwest corner of Washington State. North Head Lighthouse and associated keepers’ residences were designed by Carl Leick, a German immigrant and architect. Construction of the lighthouse began in 1897 and the lighthouse began operation on May 16, 1898. After visiting the lighthouse, we walked up a trail to an artillery observation bunker that was once part of Fort Canby. The observation bunker was built to possess three functions, each in its own section of the building, a Triple Base End Station, a Searchlight Control Both and a tower for an SCR-682 General Surveillance Detector. Join us as we visit North Head Lighthouse and its surroundings.
