The Doubling Point Range Lights are a pair of range lights on the Kennebec River, in Arrowsic, Maine.[2][3] Built in 1898 as part of a major improvement on navigational aids on the river, they are the only surviving pair of range lights in the state.[4] They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Kennebec River Light Station on January 21, 1988.[1]
