When the communities of Cape Sable Island and Barrington learned that the lantern room and lens from the Seal Island Lighthouse were going to be removed in 1977 and relocated to the National Museum of Science and Technology in Ottawa, residents took steps to keep the artifacts in the area. Their efforts paid off, it was decided that the lens and lantern room would remain in Barrington, if the community could properly care for them.
An approximately half-scale replica of the Seal Island Lighthouse was constructed as a base for the historic lantern room and second-order Fresnel lens.
You can climb to the 1907 iron lantern which sits atop a replica of the original 1831 lighthouse on Seal Island. Inside the lantern visitors get a light keeper's view of the jewel-like second order Fresnel lens which was the lens from the original lighthouse.
