About Århus Østmole Lighthouse
This lighthouse, built of stone in 1935, is a cylindrical tower standing 8 meters tall. It is painted white with a single red horizontal band and features a lantern and gallery atop a round stone pier. The focal height of the light is 16 meters. Situated off the end of the east mole, it marks the entrance to the traditional inner harbor of Aarhus. The light emits a single red flash every 5 seconds, visible for 12.2 nautical miles.
Why it matters: This lighthouse is essential for guiding vessels around the eastern mole and into the protected waters of Aarhus's inner harbor, preventing collisions with the mole and ensuring safe entry into one of Denmark's busiest ports.
