About Strömskaten Lighthouse
Also known as: Strömskaten (Strömskatan)
This concrete lighthouse, first lit in 1900, stands on a square base and features a cylindrical tower topped with a lantern and gallery. The red tower measures 11 meters in height, with the light positioned 12 meters above sea level. Its geographic range extends to 11 nautical miles. The light emits two white, red, or green flashes every 12 seconds, with the color indicating the approach direction. The site is open to visitors, but the tower itself is closed to the public.
Why it matters: The lighthouse's directional light is essential for safe navigation around Lungön island, helping vessels avoid shoals and maintain specific channels.
