About Fænø Lighthouse
Established in 1900, this lighthouse is located on the south coast of Fænø, an island in the Lille Bælt south of Middelfart. The light is shown from a second-floor window of an 8-meter, 1-1/2 story keeper's house that is painted white. It emits one white, red, or green flash every 5 seconds. The geographic range for the light is 10.7 nautical miles. The keeper's house structure is 8 meters in height, with the focal height at 11 meters.
Why it matters: This leading light guides vessels northbound in the Lille Bælt, and its design, with the light originating from a keeper's house window, is a notable architectural feature.
