About Rannö Lighthouse
A square pyramidal skeletal tower, stained red-brown, was built and first lit in 1962 on a small island north of the Åland Islands. This 6-meter-tall structure supports a light with a focal height of 20 meters, emitting a white flash every 5 seconds. It has a geographic range of 13.2 nautical miles. The tower features slatted daymarks on two sides. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: Rannö lighthouse appears on a postage stamp, indicating its cultural recognition in the region. It aids navigation through the complex waterways of the northern Åland archipelago.
