4.5Kenosha History Center(61 reviews) - Great autos inside plus a lighthouse! Sunday: 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM History Museums
PROS: Free; ample parking; right by lake Michigan and the beach; has 2 lighthouses in close proximity with each other; kind docent ; small exhibit about the early days of Kenosha and a great exhibit featuring the Rambler and AMC car company; there are also an old time fire truck and bicycles ( the ones with the giant front wheel). It’s a relaxing 1 hour stop. CONS: We wished the lighthouse opened earlier in the year (we’re missing it by 2 weeks), otherwise it’s a great little museum.See more..
...old stone lighthouse that stands tall and high close to the Kenosha Water-Tower, another city symbol. I wish it would have been open so I could've checked-out the museum inside, but it really doesn't matter does it? This lighthouse (as well as all other lighthouses) is just a temporary diversion in my life that probably will disappear like numerous other diversions have. I also think they are just something for me to use as checkpoints for whatever physical direction I'm going. Another dichotomy to lighthouses. Dan - another duality to consider!See more..
