The Drogheda East Lighthouse is a historic lighthouse located in Mornington, Meath, Ireland. It was built in the early 19th century to guide ships along the coast near the mouth of the River Boyne.

The lighthouse is currently owned and maintained by the Commissioners of Irish Lights, the organization responsible for Ireland's coastal lighthouses.

In recent years, the Drogheda East Lighthouse has undergone significant restoration work to preserve its historic character and functionality. Over €180,000 was spent on restoring the lighthouse, including repairs to the tower, lantern room, and other key components. The Irish Landmark Trust, a non-profit organization, now offers accommodation within the lighthouse, allowing visitors to experience staying in this unique historic structure.
