About Point Prim Lighthouse
- The single rate stamp features the Point Prim Lighthouse (PE).
- This heritage lighthouse, the first to be built on Prince Edward Island, was constructed in 1845, nearly 30 years before PEI joined Confederation.
- It is located in an open field at the end of Point Prim, which juts out into Northumberland Strait and marks the southeastern entrance to Hillsborough Bay and Charlottetown Harbour.
- The Point Prim Lighthouse is one of only a few cylindrical brick lighthouses – and one of the oldest lighthouse structures still standing – in Canada.
