Part of the Summer 2023 Maritime Lecture Series!

Join us for a talk by local historian Joe Lebherz on the short life of the First Minot’s Ledge Lighthouse and how on a harrowing night in April 1851, the new lighthouse was struck by a major storm that caused severe damage throughout the Boston area. The following morning, Cohasset residents rose to discover that all that remained of the lighthouse (and its keepers) was a few bent pilings on the rock. 

Included in the four-lecture series package.
