About Brändö Föglö Range Rear Lighthouse
A 30-meter tapered square skeletal steel tower, painted red with a yellow vertical stripe, stands 37 meters above sea level. This rear range light guides southbound vessels on a long course between Lemland and Föglö, south of Brändö. Its white light flashes once every 6 seconds, providing a clear navigational signal. The structure carries a large rectangular daymark, also red with a yellow vertical stripe, aiding visibility during daylight. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This range rear light is indispensable for southbound vessels navigating the intricate channels between Lemland and Föglö, providing a precise alignment to avoid hazards in this busy shipping lane.
