Dice Head Light is a lighthouse in the town of Castine, Maine. First established in 1829, the light was deactivated in 1937 and replaced by a skeleton tower 475 ft (145m) to the south. When that structure was destroyed by a storm in 2007, however, the old light was reactivated in 2008.[4]
The lighthouse is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing property to Castine Historic District.[5]
