Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse in the Hudson River.

Lighthouse Tour

The fresnel lens at Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse.

The Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse (aka Tarrytown Lighthouse and Kingsland Point Lighthouse) was once a half-mile off shore, warning ships away from dangerous shoals on the east side of the Hudson River. Years of landfill by a now-demolished General Motors factory moved the shoreline within a few feet of the light. The cast iron tower was installed in 1883. Over its 78 years of operation, 12 light keepers and their families occupied the five-story structure.

Sleepy Hollow's village historian brings to life stories from the days this was a crucial navigational aid on a busy water highway!

Where: Kingsland Point Park, 299 Palmer Avenue, Sleepy Hollow, NY 10591

2022 dates: Due to preservation and restoration work, the lighthouse is closed this season.
