About Helleholm Lighthouse
Also known as: Helleholm (Agersø)
A 12-meter cylindrical tower with a red lantern dome, the Helleholm Lighthouse was built in 1900. Its 12-meter focal height provides a geographic range of 11 nautical miles. The station was first established in 1846, with the current structure serving maritime needs since its first lighting in 1900. The light emits three obscured white, green, or red flashes every 15 seconds. The lighthouse is situated on Helleholm, the southeastern tip of Agersø island, approximately 1.5 km from the nearest port on Agersø.
Why it matters: The lighthouse marks the southeastern tip of Agersø, and its directional light system offers specific guidance to vessels navigating these waters, including ferry services.
