We are The St. Paul Island Historical Society. Our mission is to preserve the history of this island and it's significance to the coastal community of Dingwall, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. The SW Lighthouse from St. Paul Island was taken off the island around 1988 and moved to the Coast Guard Base in Dartmouth, NS where it has remained hidden from the public and neglected. We would like to bring this beautiful historical monument home to Dingwall to care for it and have it become the centerpiece of our museum. We need your support to push the Coast Guard into releasing this important part of our history. Thank you for being part of our hopes and dreams.

My grandfather spent years working the waters around there. Fix this mistake and get the light back where it belongs.

too much history is lost to bureaucracy. leave it to the people who actually care about the island.

That lighthouse belongs in Dingwall not rotting away in a government lot in Dartmouth. Bring it home!
