The Old Michigan City Light is a decommissioned lighthouse located in the harbor of Michigan City, Indiana.

It was the second light at the site, and the predecessor to the Michigan City East Light, to which the lantern, lens and light were moved in 1904; it being the new light at the end of the newly extended pier. It was remodeled in 1904. Seven Lighthouse keepers and fourteen assistant keepers served here from 1837-1940. A fourth order Fresnel lens is on display.
