About Lotbinière Range Rear Lighthouse
The Lotbinière Range Rear light stands as a cylindrical steel tower, 17 meters tall, with its light at a focal height of 41 meters. Established in 1871, the current structure was built in 1993, replacing an earlier skeletal tower from the late 1940s that succeeded an original light on a wood tower. This rear range light is positioned 868 meters south-southwest of its front light. It emits a steady white light, providing guidance for vessels navigating an upstream waterway. The structure features a square cylindrical skeletal design, and its geographic range is 17.2 nautical miles.
Why it matters: This rear range light is essential for maintaining the correct course on the waterway, working in conjunction with its front light to ensure safe navigation.
