DCMM Lighthouse Tower Fund

For four decades, the Door County Maritime Museum has educated and entertained the public while working hard to preserve rich maritime history. Now, the museum is ready to take a major leap forward with an exciting new initiative: expanding its Sturgeon Bay facility with a spectacular, 11-story Maritime LighthouseTower filled with state-of-the-art exhibits for all ages. Evoking the romance of North America’s lighthouses, it will serve as a striking visual landmark on the Sturgeon Bay waterfront.

The additional Maritime LighthouseTower will be dedicated to promoting the world’s most extensive inland waterways system and recognizing the region’s vast contributions to shipbuilding, recreational boating, and marine related businesses.

With ten years in the planning, the new Maritime Lighthouse Tower will become a lasting celebration showcasing the inland maritime contributions to the economy, commemorating the value of maritime activities, and conveying these successes to the public. The Maritime Lighthouse Tower will be a major attraction for tourism, business conventions, and the general public.

Serving as a visual landmark, the new 11-story, 11,000 sq. ft. Maritime Lighthouse Tower will be reminiscent of lighthouses throughout the nation. It will provide a remarkable, highly attractive destination for families, recreational marine groups, and business conferences. This will be an enduring celebration and a highly attractive feature for decades to come.

Thank you for partnering with us on this new and exciting initiative!

Sincerely,

Amy Paul
Executive Director
