About Åbenrå Lighthouse
Also known as: #Åbenrå (Sønderstrand)
The Åbenrå lighthouse, built in 1927, guided ships entering the harbor from the Lille Bælt. It stood on a brick foundation with a cylindrical wooden tower, standing 4 meters high. The light, a single white occulting flash, was displayed through a square window. This navigational aid had a geographic range of 10 nautical miles. The lighthouse was operational until 2017 and was removed from its site on Kystvej around 2023. While the site remains open, the tower is no longer present.
Why it matters: This lighthouse was important for ships entering Åbenrå harbor from Lille Bælt, helping them navigate the approach to the port.
