About Mannevikodden Lighthouse
Mannevikodden lighthouse is a concrete structure located on a ridge marking a sharp right-angle turn in Randøysund, near Kristiansand. The 4.5-meter lantern, painted white with a red roof, sits atop a black pedestal. This navigational aid, built of concrete, was operational until 2020. The site is accessible by boat and open to visitors, though the tower itself remains closed. It is situated 3.8 kilometers by sea from Flekkeroy.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's strategic placement was essential for guiding vessels through a critical right-angle turn in Randøysund, a historically challenging navigational point.
