}} The La Pointe Light is a lighthouse located on Long Island, one of the Apostle Islands, in Lake Superior in Ashland County, Wisconsin, near the city of Bayfield. Currently owned by the National Park Service and part of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, as reference number 83003366. Listed in the Library of Congress, Historic American Buildings Survey, WI-325 and WI-325-A. One of the oldest skeletal lighthouses on the Great Lakes, it played an important role in transportation on Lake Superior.〔(Terry Pepper, Seeing the Light, New La Pointe Light Station. )〕 A square wooden tower, constructed in 1858, was located around west of the current light.〔(Terry Pepper, Seeing the Light, Old La Pointe Light Station. )〕 The previous lens was moved to the Chequamegon Point Lighthouse in 1897. It is one of the Apostle Islands Lighthouses. ==Getting there== Most of the Apostle Islands light stations may be reached on the Apostle Islands Cruise Service〔(Apostle Islands Cruise Service. )〕 water taxi or by private boat during the summer. During the Annual Apostle Island Lighthouse Celebration〔(Apostle Island Lighthouse Celebration. )〕 ferry tour service is available for all the lighthouses.
