The Point-a-la-Renommee Lighthouse was only returned to this site in 1997 as the lighthouse used to stand in the Port of Quebec for over 20 years. Finally, it was returned to this location, which is the site of North America's first maritime radio station. The radio station was installed by Marconi in 1904 and visitors can see evidence of that for themselves today.
