Join us on May 29th, 2023 in a focused walking tour to learn about the various wars that affected the lighthouse and its operation, as well as the wars that the lighthouse witnessed. See how the military and wars changed our landscape and way of living here in Hampton Roads. Don’t miss your chance to view the World War II bunker that resides under the lighthouse!
