A former shipbuilding center, the town spearheaded the construction of war ships for the famous Battle of Lake Erie in the War of 1812. Erie is also home to a monument honoring the American commander of the Battle of Lake Erie, Oliver Hazard Perry, and visitors can tour a replica of his impressive flagship, the U.S. Brig Niagara, at the Erie Maritime Museum. Several lighthouses, each built in the 19th century and open for tours, dot the short stretch of Pennsylvania coastline near Erie.
