Rose Island Light House Foundation

Welcome to the Montauk Point Lighthouse, the oldest lighthouse in New York State. The Lighthouse was authorized by the Second Congress, under President George Washington, in 1792. Construction began on June 7, 1796 and was completed on November 5, 1796.

The Plymouth Antiquarian Society, founded in 1919, is dedicated to preserving and interpreting Plymouth's rich historical heritage through its ownership of three historic houses: the 1677 Harlow House, the 1749 Spooner House, and the 1809 Hedge House. With a mission to engage the community in the local past, the Society also manages the ancient Native American site known as Sacrifice Rock and offers guided tours, educational programs, and a variety of events focused on Plymouth's post-Pilgrim history. As the largest historical organization in Plymouth, the Society boasts over 400 active members and promotes the value of personal and family stories in enhancing community relationships. By advocating for historic preservation and providing educational resources, the Plymouth Antiquarian Society seeks to foster public awareness and understanding of local history from the mid-seventeenth century to the present.
