Cape Hatteras
Lighthouse, one of America's most visited lighthouses, was built
in 1870 and is the tallest lighthouse in the United States at
208 feet. It was built to warn sailors of the shallow sandbars
off the cape. The frame buildings near the lighthouse served as
quarters to the keepers of the light. The lighthouse was moved
one-half mile inland from its original location in 1999, placing
it 1600 feet from the ocean, the same distance as when it was
originally built.
