About Libertus Lighthouse
A cylindrical concrete tower, painted white and standing 7 meters tall, was first lit in 1931. It is situated on the northwest tip of a small island within the Lilla Värtan sound, near where several ship channels meet. The structure includes a lantern and gallery, and its focal height is 6 meters above sea level. The light emits three flashes, alternating between white, red, and green, every nine seconds. This light has a geographic range of 8.9 nautical miles. While the tower is closed to visitors, the island site is accessible.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels westbound toward Stockholm, especially through the junction of ship channels in the Lilla Värtan sound, ensuring the smooth flow of shipping into the capital.
