A lighthouse museum is a museum specializing in the display of historical objects relating to lighthouses. These museums are either stand alone buildings or are present in lighthouses that are active or inactive. Objects displayed include tools lighthouse keepers used at the time in their everyday lives to maintain the light as well as historic objects such as the Fresnel lens. In addition to navigation, lighthouses in general continue to operate almost as "small maritime museums".
