Lighting the way since 1871. The Rose Blanche Lighthouse was restored 25 years ago, and this weekend, the community will celebrate

  • Resumen

  • In 1871, the location for the Rose Blanche Lighthouse was selected. Two years later, the granite structure was completed, and the light was lit for the first time. It stood proudly as a beacon for mariners for 70 years before falling into disrepair. In 1996, after years of hard work and raising money, work began to restore the lighthouse - and in 1999 a re-opening ceremony was held. Now, 25 years later, that restoration is being celebrated in Rose Blanche. Rita Anderson is the former executive director of the Southwest Coast Development Association and the driving force behind the restoration of the lighthouse.
