Jupiter Lighthouse
The Jupiter Lighthouse is on the northern bank of the Loxahatchee River and is often used as the symbol of the city of Jupiter, FL. It was completed in 1860; it’s made of brick and was painted red in 1910 due to discoloration caused by humidity. The lighthouse is 108 feet tall and has a circular stairway with 105 steps from the base of the tower to the lantern room; when revolving, the four bulls-eyes in the lens produce the repeating cycle of two flashes followed by a period of darkness.
