DescriptionU.S. Life-Saving Service display in the Umpqua River Lighthouse Museum (32421631628).jpg
Built in 1939, the US Coast Guard station at Winchester Bay is home to the museum of the Umpqua River Lighthouse. The Umpqua River Lighthouse at Winchester Bay in Douglas County, Oregon towers over the beach where the Umpqua River empties into the Pacific Ocean. The 65-foot lighthouse was constructed in 1890 after the first Umpqua River Lighthouse, built in 1857, next to the river mouth, collapsed in a storm. The Umpqua River Lighthouse features a two-ton First Order Fresnel lens constructed from 616 glass prisms handcrafted in France.
