About Hiddensee Oberfeuer Lighthouse
The Hiddensee Oberfeuer, built in 1979, is a square white skeletal tower standing 22 meters tall. It carries a rectangular daymark marked with red and a white vertical stripe. This rear range light stands 23 meters above sea level and emits a white occulting light that appears once every 6 seconds. It is located on the east coast of Hiddensee, approximately 1 km west of the front range light. The tower's geographic range is 13.8 nautical miles. The nearest port, Vitte, is 1.2 km away.
Why it matters: This light functions as a rear range marker, working with its front counterpart to establish a precise navigational line. Its operation is important for guiding vessels along the east coast of Hiddensee.
