2007 Harbour Lights

Mobile Point, AL


Mobile Point, Alabama HL 344 2007 January Release Edition size 2,500 In Stock In September 1822, a 40’ brick tower was lit with a light that offered little to the mariners who found they could not get any closer than within 10 miles due to the shoals. The Confederate Army took control of Fort Morgan at the beginning of the Civil War. The lens was removed and the Light darkened. Admiral David Farragut of the Union captured Fort Morgan in August 1864 after a fierce battle that resulted in the lighthouse being hit by a barrage of cannon fire. In rallying his men to victory Farragut shouted those immortal words: “Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!” The tower so seriously damaged that after the war what remained was torn down. The lighthouse comes with both a Confederate flag and United States flag. Flag does not change automatically.
