About Sillerslev Forfyr Lighthouse
Also known as: Sillerslev Forfyr (Range Front)
Built in 1911, Sillerslev Forfyr is a square wooden building standing 3 meters tall, with its light situated 10 meters above sea level. The structure, painted white with a single red horizontal band, features a light shown through a square window. It emits an isophase white light that cycles every 2 seconds, visible for 10.4 nautical miles. Located on the waterfront of Sønderby on the south side of Mors island, it guides vessels heading northeast from the Oddesund area. The lighthouse site is open to the public, though the building itself is closed.
Why it matters: This range light is significant for guiding ships through the waterways northeast of the Oddesund area. Its distinct design as a compact wooden structure provides a unique example of functional coastal architecture.
