A self-contained and easily moveable solar-powered illuminated address display is provided comprising a compartment into which a translucent address display plate may be slid. Users can supply inexpensive indicia, such as numbers or letters, onto the address display plate to indicate an address or other information, by attaching stick-on indicia, drawing, painting, or printing them, or purchasing them in preconfigured forms. A solar panel supplies electrical power, which is stored in a battery, to supply a lighting means with power. When light is generated, it passes through the translucent address display plate, contrasting with areas marked by the indicia, so that the address may be read easily at night. An optional photo cell switch switches the power on or off according to lighting conditions. The solar-powered illuminated address display may be attached to a second surface, such as a wall or mailbox, by wood screws, machine screws, a chain, or magnets.
