HistoryThe museum was founded in Gills Rock, Wisconsin, in 1969 and began operating at the Cana Island Light in 1971.[3] The Gills Rock location was opened in 1975.[3] In 1993, the museum began a capital campaign to build a year-round facility in Sturgeon Bay, which was accomplished in 1997.[3] In 2015, the museum began another capital campaign to expand their Sturgeon Bay museum with the construction of an 11-story lighthouse tower, which will contain exhibit space and an observation deck.[1] SitesSturgeon BayThe Sturgeon Bay site was opened in 1997.[3] It contains the museum's offices, as well as its main exhibits. The site also hosts the tugboat John Purves, which was built in 1919, served the U.S. Army in World War II, and later sailed on the Great Lakes.[4] The site also hosts CG-41410, which was the last 41-foot Utility Boat, Large in active service with the U.S. Coast Guard.[5] Gills RockThe Gills Rock site opened in 1975.[3] It contains exhibits that focus on the commercial fishing industry and pirates on the Great Lakes.[3] The site also hosts a 45-foot wooden fishing boat, which was built in 1930.[6] The site is open seasonally from May to October. Cana Island LighthouseThe Cana Island Lighthouse (aka Cana Island Light) [7] was constructed in 1869 and opened as a museum site in 1971.[3] It is located near Baileys Harbor, Wisconsin. Access to the island is via a causeway. After the winter of 2015-16, heavy snow, rain, and decreased evaporation caused Lakes Michigan and Huron to rise 30+ inches; that summer the causeway was occasionally covered by water, so the Museum purchased a tractor and wagon to take visitors to the lighthouse when the causeway was covered with water. Summers of 2017 and 2018, the causeway was always covered. Volunteers drive the tractor. The lighthouse keeper's residence has been restored and is a museum depicting life for a lighthouse family. Restoration as of summer 2018: Phase 2 was completed in 2017 and included restoring the out buildings including the oil house, privy and barn. Phase 3 is scheduled for late 2018/early 2019 and includes construction of a visitor's center to replace the temporary building. Phase 4 is scheduled to start after Phase 3 fundraising and construction are complete. Phase 4 will restore the interior of the keeper’s house ($1,000,000).[8][9] The 89-foot light tower is also open for tours.[9] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/story/news/local/door-co/news/2015/03/14/maritime-museum-tower-expansion/24754385/ |title=Door County Maritime Museum tower: Reaching new heights |author=Alyssa Bloechl |publisher=Green Bay Press-Gazette |date=March 14, 2015 |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} {{Wisconsin-museum-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dcmm.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2016-01-25_Amy_Paul_Named_Acting_Executive_Director.pdf |title= Amy Paul Named Acting Executive Director|publisher=Door County Maritime Museum |date=January 25, 2016 |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web|url=http://www.dcmm.org/maritime-tower-project/brief-history-door-county-maritime-museum/ |title=A Brief History of the Door County Maritime Museum |publisher=Door County Maritime Museum |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dcmm.org/exhibits/sturgeon-bay/tug-john-purves/ |title=Tug John Purves |publisher=Door County Maritime Museum |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://doorcounty.net/article-21380-last-uscg-boat-placed-in-front-of-door-county-maritime-museum.html |title=Last USCG Boat Placed in Front of Door County Maritime Museum |author=Amy Paul |publisher=Door County Today |date=May 19, 2015 |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dcmm.org/gills-rock-museum/ |title=Door County Maritime Museum - Gills Rock |publisher=Door County Maritime Museum |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} 7. ^http://www.terrypepper.com/lights/michigan/canaisland/canaisland.htm 8. ^http://www.dcmm.org/cana-island-restoration-project/ 9. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.dcmm.org/cana-island-lighthouse/ |title=Cana Island Light Station |publisher=Door County Maritime Museum |accessdate=December 26, 2016}} 4 : Museums in Door County, Wisconsin|1969 establishments in Wisconsin|Maritime museums in Wisconsin|Museums established in 1969 |
