A view of both the old and the new Cape Henry Lighthouses. The old Cape Henry Lighthouse was built in 1792 and was in use until 1881 when it was replaced by the new Cape Henry Lighthouse. Coincidently, the old Cape Henry Lighthouse, owned by the Association for Preservation for Virginia Antiquities, also recently underwent some restoration work. In season, for a small fee, the old Cape Henry Lighthouse is open to the public for climbing.
