About Île Srigina Lighthouse
The Île Srigina lighthouse is a 12-meter metal tower built in 1906, situated on a steep-sided island about 4 kilometers north of Stora. Its structure comprises a square cylindrical tower with a lantern and gallery, rising from a two-story keeper's house. This light emits a red flash every 5 seconds from a focal height of 54 meters, visible for over 19 nautical miles. The lighthouse guides vessels navigating the western entrance to the Golfe de Stora. The island and tower are closed to the public, maintaining its remote character and operational integrity.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is indispensable for maritime traffic navigating the western approach to the Golfe de Stora, offering a critical navigational aid for ships and fishing boats. Its unique design, with the tower emerging from a keeper's house, gives it a distinctive architectural character.
