About Skjeljanger Ringholmen Lighthouse
Also known as: #Skjeljanger Ringholmen
The Skjeljanger Ringholmen lighthouse was a square metal tower standing 6 meters tall, with its focal plane at 7 meters. Painted white, it featured a lantern and gallery, topped by a red lantern roof. This structure was situated on the northern tip of a small island, about 600 meters south of Skjeljanger in Norway's Vestland region. Its operational history ended in 2022 when the tower was removed, and the light was relocated to a post 120 meters to the east. The geographic range of its light was 9.3 nautical miles.
Why it matters: The light marked the northern tip of a small island, guiding vessels through the local fjord system.
