The Devils Island Lighthouse is a lighthouse located on Devils Island, one of the Apostle Islands, in Lake Superior in Ashland County, Wisconsin, near the city of Bayfield.[8][9][10] Among the Apostle Islands lighthouses—a testament to its remoteness—it was the last built, and the last automated and unmanned.
