You can find another Door County shipwreck on the State Register of Historic Places. The Wisconsin Historical Society announced earlier this month that the Pride shipwreck became the most recent vessel on the list. The Ohio-built schooner rests 250 feet north of the intersection of West Juniper Street and North Lansing Avenue. After being built in 1866, the Pride operated in the Great Lakes lumber and bulk cargo trades until a tornado in Egg Harbor in August 1898 caused it to capsize, killing the ship’s mate. It was righted moved to Sturgeon Bay for repairs, but it was ultimately abandoned around 1900. According to the Wisconsin Historical Society, the Pride is partially embedded in the lakebed in eight feet of water and still retains its archaeological integrity, with most of the vessel hull components protected by sediment in the bay. Most recently, the Peoria Shipwreck made its way to the State Register of Historic Places before placing it on the National Register in April.
