Portland Head Light Maine by Debra Martz One of the most photographed lighthouses in the country was commissioned by George Washington. Portland Head is Maine’s oldest lighthouse and is still active, guiding ships into the Portland Harbor. There is only one day each year when the Coast Guard allows a limited number of visitors inside this storied lighthouse: the annual Maine Open Lighthouse Day in September. Fortunately, there is a museum operating from Memorial Day through October 31 (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) inside the 1891 keeper's quarters where you can view several lighthouse lenses and interpretive displays. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved 20231013-DSC_0072-Edit.tif

Great gift for a loved one who loves Portland Maine especially whoopie pies and pine trees. It's a university style design that shows: PORTLAND MAINE 1786 HOME OF THE WHOOPIE PIE.
